Dub Drive 2020 will be the first time Foust visits the UAE and he will be pulling off an exhilarating and extraordinary stunt.

The globally recognised festival will be held at Yas Marina Circuit in Abu Dhabi on Friday, February 7th. To set the scene, a convoy of Volkswagen cars will drive through the streets of Abu Dhabi showcasing an impressive convoy, supported by the Abu Dhabi Police Department.

The event is suitable for the whole family with attractions including music, food trucks, a kids driving school, racing simulators, 4x4 driving experiences, car show, drifting and drag racing.

“Dub Drive was introduced to highlight our dedication to our customers and each year a strong sense of unity, commitment and passion radiates from the regional Volkswagen community and clubs who gather together to celebrate the brand. We’re very excited to announce Tanner Foust’s presence this year and are thrilled to see him show-off his skills in our vehicles,” commented Victor Dalmau, Managing Director Volkswagen Middle East.
