Global hitmaker Pitbull is set to perform in Jeddah during the Formula 1 STC Saudi Arabian Grand Prix 2026. The American rapper and pop star will take the stage on Saturday, April 18, as part of the race weekend concerts at the Jeddah Corniche Circuit.
The Saudi Grand Prix has become known not only for its high-speed night race but also for its after-race concerts, which bring some of the world’s biggest music names to the city. This year’s lineup already includes Kygo and Shakira, with more artists expected to be announced in the coming weeks.
Pitbull, whose real name is Armando Christian Pérez, has spent more than two decades building a global fan base with his mix of hip-hop, pop, and Latin sounds. He first gained attention in the early 2000s and later became a chart-topping artist with a string of upbeat hits.
Songs like “Give Me Everything,” “Timber,” “Fireball,” and “Don’t Stop the Party” have turned him into a regular presence at major festivals and sporting events around the world. His energetic stage style and crowd-friendly music have made him a popular choice for large-scale shows.
The 2026 Saudi Arabian Grand Prix is scheduled to take place from April 18 to 20 in Jeddah. Fans with race tickets will also be able to attend the concerts, which are held after the racing action each day.
With Pitbull set to perform on Saturday night of the race weekend, fans can expect a lively show filled with familiar hits and party anthems, adding even more excitement to one of the biggest sporting events in the Kingdom.
