A worldwide known comedian and actor, Kevin Hart, has been announced as Yas Island’s first Chief Officer. The stand-up star is meant to help to promote this travel destination by participating in different events and activities and creating social media content to spread the word about this action-packed place.
For those who didn’t know, Yas Island is Abu Dhabi’s one of the top tourism projects. Occupying a total of 25 square kilometers, the island is to be the world’s top travel destination. Yas Island is a home to exhilarating theme parks and water rides as well as the world-class Ferrari Abu Dhabi racetrack.
The announcement of Kevin Hart taking up a role as the Island’s ambassador came alongside with a promotional video, that the stand-up star has posted on his Instagram account, saying how he will “Hartify” the “world’s most entertaining island”.
“There goes Yas Island’s first Chief Island Officer in a white Ferrari thinking he’s a big deal. Guess what, this is a big deal. Guess what, this is a big deal,” the star’s voice can be heard in the opening scene of a promo clip. The video follows a caption that reads:
“Breaking news people. I got a new gig. You’re looking at Yas Island Abu Dhabi’s first ever Chief Island Officer!!! And I can assure you, I’ve been giving it 100% hart cause you know how I do…”
This whole promotional campaign is a part of Island’s effort to be put on a map and become a must-see tourist destination. At the same time, the Yas Island became a part of the international trade show, The Arabian Travel Market 2022, which took place in Dubai earlier this month.
Last summer, Kevin Hart gave a hint of what’s coming, when he shared a clip revealing that Yas Island would be his next holiday destination.

We’re off to the UAE’s spectacular capital, Abu Dhabi, to take over the world’s craziest entertainment destination, Yas Island Abu Dhabi. World-class golf course, Ferrari rollercoasters, a gazillion water slides and superheroes. How cool is that? There’s even a Grand Prix racetrack for us to take on!
