## **What is Anyma Presents Æden?**
ÆDEN is Anyma’s latest audiovisual live experience.
Rather than functioning as a traditional DJ set alone, the show combines electronic music with futuristic digital storytelling, large-scale visuals and immersive production.
Live Nation describes the Abu Dhabi edition as a groundbreaking audiovisual experience designed to push the boundaries between electronic music and live entertainment. ([www.livenation.me](https://www.livenation.me/anyma?utm_source=chatgpt.com))

## **Do you need an Abu Dhabi F1 ticket?**
The event is officially part of the Yasalam entertainment programme surrounding the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.
The official Abu Dhabi Grand Prix website currently describes Yasalam Official After-Parties as part of its wider race-week entertainment programme and is inviting fans to register their interest. ([Abu Dhabi Grand Prix](https://www.abudhabigp.com/en/yasalam?utm_source=chatgpt.com))
Fans purchasing specifically for Anyma should check the final ticket conditions when sales open, particularly regarding whether an Abu Dhabi Grand Prix ticket is required for their chosen category.
This distinction is important because Yasalam’s regular **After-Race Concerts** and its **Official After-Parties** operate as different experiences.
## **Yasalam After-Party vs After-Race Concerts**
Anyma’s performance at Yas Gateway Park should not be confused with the Yasalam After-Race Concerts taking place at Etihad Live.
The After-Race Concert programme already includes several major artists.
**Thursday, December 3:** Zara Larsson and Lewis Capaldi.
**Saturday, December 5:** Imagine Dragons.
**Sunday, December 6:** The Chainsmokers and The Script.
More entertainment announcements are still expected as Formula 1 weekend approaches. ([Abu Dhabi Grand Prix](https://www.abudhabigp.com/en/yasalam?utm_source=chatgpt.com))
