Disney and Formula 1 Collaboration to Launch at Las Vegas Grand Prix

by | Oct 28, 2025 | News Outside the Parks

Disney and Formula 1 are teaming up for a highly anticipated collaboration, with plans to kick off at the Las Vegas Grand Prix.

Disney and Formula 1 are joining forces — and their first stop together is the Las Vegas Grand Prix this November. The collaboration, first teased earlier this year, promises to “fuel the magic” for fans around the world by mixing Disney’s storytelling flair with the excitement of Formula 1 racing.

And of course, it wouldn’t be a Disney event without Mickey and Friends getting in on the action.

Disney and Formula 1 Collaboration

During race week, Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Donald Duck, Daisy Duck, Goofy, and Pluto will all make appearances in Las Vegas, adding some classic Disney fun to one of the biggest racing weekends of the year.

In a first-of-its-kind moment, Mickey Mouse will perform live in front of the Fountains of Bellagio in a special Disney Live Entertainment show. The high-energy performance will include music, pyrotechnics, and plenty of surprises for fans watching along the Strip.

The Disneyland Band will also bring its signature magic to the grid on race day, performing the national anthem as part of the opening festivities. And beyond the racetrack, Mickey and Minnie will spend time with local kids during a special community event designed to inspire the next generation.

Fans attending the Grand Prix can even catch Mickey & Friends during a pitlane walk ahead of the qualifying race, with select grandstand ticket holders getting a closer look at the teams in action.

“The Disney brand represents the power of storytelling, creativity and connection,” said Tasia Filippatos, President of Disney Consumer Products. “We’re thrilled to bring together sports, pop culture, and entertainment in a way that creates unforgettable moments for both Mickey and Friends and F1 fans around the world.”

Emily Prazer, Chief Commercial Officer of Formula 1 and President and CEO of the Las Vegas Grand Prix, added, “This partnership is all about combining two iconic worlds. With Disney and Formula 1 coming together, fans can expect a race weekend full of creativity, entertainment, and a little bit of magic.”

A New Collection for Fans

The collaboration will also introduce a brand-new Disney x Formula 1 merchandise collection, launching in early November. The line mixes Mickey & Friends’ playful style with Formula 1’s bold, high-performance vibe.

Fans attending the Las Vegas Grand Prix can shop the collection starting November 8 at the F1 Las Vegas Hub Presented by American Express inside The Venetian Resort. A few select pieces will also be available online at DisneyStore.com for those following along from home.

Race Weekend

Even if you’re not in Las Vegas, you won’t miss out. Fans can tune in to watch the race — and the Disney magic — unfold live on ESPN and the ESPN App on November 22, 2025. Exclusive digital content and behind-the-scenes moments will roll out across Disney and Formula 1 platforms throughout the event.

And the fun doesn’t stop there. The “Fuel the Magic” campaign will continue through the 2026 and 2027 Formula 1 seasons, bringing more Disney charm to race weekends around the world.
