Jumeirah at Etihad Towers will host an exclusive charitable evening on Thursday 22nd November at the Aston Martin Showroom, Etihad Towers, to help the Make A Wish Foundation grant wishes for sick children, through fundraising in partnership with this year’s Etihad Airways Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.

The event will feature a live auction in support of the UAE charity and will offer exclusive Formula One memorabilia, from replica race helmets and watches worn by Formula One drivers to Paddock Club tickets.  The money raised will be donated to children suffering from chronic or terminal illnesses and will go towards making their wildest dreams come true.

Alongside the auction there will also be an “every ticket wins” raffle, so guests are guaranteed to leave with a prize.  The event will also include VIP appearances from the Formula One presenter and event organiser Inga Stracke, a live painting show from Artist Armin Flossdorf, as well as  Red Bull Driver Max Vertsappen.

Exclusive Formula One memorabilia for auction on the night will include:

-Formula One experiences such as Paddock Club tickets for a spectacular view of the Yas Marina Circuit in Abu Dhabi

-A Giorgio Piola watch – worn by Formula One drivers around the world

-A replica race helmet by Schuberth
