MSC Cruises’ Virtuosa will serve as a cruise ship hotel during Formula 1’s Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.
As part of a multi-year global partnership between the two brands, MSC Cruises will offer a range of packages for the event combining accommodation, race tickets and exclusive trackside activities such as a guided track tour.
Virtuosa will dock at the Abu Dhabi Cruise Terminal from November 23-27 allowing passengers to extend their stay beyond the event with an additional day either side.
Gianni Onorato, chief executive of MSC Cruises, said: “Through this exclusive hospitality offering we are bringing together the very best of two worlds: Formula 1 and MSC Cruises.
“By collaborating together, we are integrating the incredible atmosphere at the track with the incredible experience on board our ships to create an unrivalled and truly memorable race experience for fans of all ages.”
