After the conclusion of the high-octane Formula 1 racing, the fastest-growing touring destination, Abu Dhabi, is back with yet another thrilling event to treat sports lovers around the world, starting from December 19 to 23.

Come this December end, Abu Dhabi will host the third instalment of the World Tennis League (WTL) at the Etihad Arena on Yas Island. The tournament will feature 16 tennis players from various parts of the world, including India’s promising player, Sumit Nagal, who will compete alongside Medvedev, Kyrgios, Rublev, Sabalenka, and others. The competition will be held among four teams: Falcons, Hawks, Eagles, and Kites.

In addition to the intense on-court action, the Etihad Arena will also witness electrifying post-match performances from renowned artists like Bryan Adams, Sean Paul, Akon, and Anastacia.

That’s not all!

While Yas Island offers the thrilling tennis tournament of the World Tennis League, there’s more for visitors to explore. This winter, WTL visitors can also discover Sir Bani Yas Island, a desert sanctuary home to over 17,000 free-roaming animals in the Arabian Wildlife Park. Visitors can explore the island through guided wildlife safaris, participate in equestrian activities and lessons, or simply soak in nature’s beauty. The island offers a unique blend of adventure and tranquillity, making it the perfect experience for families and nature lovers.

Meanwhile, Abu-Dhabi also offers other nature amusements with Mangrove National Park, that makes up 75% of the UAE’s mangrove forest – to stroll through diverse ecosystems of kayak through lush mangrove forests.
