Abu Dhabi, UAE: The Mubadala Abu Dhabi Open returns to the UAE capital next year and to celebrate the festive period, anyone purchasing tickets for the event during the 12 days of Christmas can take advantage of this exclusive offer and automatically be in with a chance of carrying out an on-court coin toss during the tournament.

The second instalment of the competition takes place on February 3rd-11th at the International Tennis Centre, Zayed Sports City with Tunisian star Ons Jabeur already confirmed to be competing and more big names to be announced over the coming weeks.

With excitement and anticipation continuing to build ahead of the tournament, a special festive offer will provide fans with a 15 percent discount on all Category 1 and 2 tickets for purchases made between December 20th and January 1st.

As an added incentive, anyone purchasing tickets during this period will be automatically entered into a draw to play a pivotal role in the competition by conducting an on-court coin toss.

Nigel Gupta, Director of Tennis Events at IMG and Tournament Director at the Mubadala Abu Dhabi Open, said: “We are delighted to implement this significant offer on tickets over the festive period, giving as many people as possible the opportunity to attend what we are sure will be another fantastic tournament.

“It doesn’t get much better than watching elite athletes compete in a high-profile competition up close, and we are pleased so many people in Abu Dhabi, as well as across the UAE and wider region, will be able to do so.

“There is also the added bonus of being entered into a draw to conduct an on-court coin toss during the tournament, which is a truly unique opportunity to play a starring role in a major global sporting event.”

Sunday February 4th has been confirmed as Kids Day at the tournament, where families and children can look forward to a fun-filled Fan Village featuring a packed entertainment schedule and an extensive selection of food and beverage options.

Ladies Day, meanwhile, will take place on Tuesday February 6th, with wellness-themed activations in the Fan Village and spot prizes on offer to those in attendance.

Additionally, CRANK will be partnering with the tournament to deliver their iconic Ride class in the Fan Village across the opening weekend and Ladies Day, which will also feature a carefully created female-focused playlist.

Registrations are also now open for the Local Line Umpire Training Program, an expertly crafted initiative which has been designed with the aim of producing fully qualified officials who will be on court with the star players at the Mubadala Abu Dhabi Open.

The program, which runs from January 5th-28th, also aims to contribute to the evolution of tennis domestically, provide a pathway for those wishing to become a qualified tennis official and enable more certified Line Umpires in the UAE to be used for international events.
