Formula 1 to Launch Disney Collaboration at the Las Vegas GP

A spectacular show at the world-famous Bellagio fountains will launch a major new sponsorship deal between Formula 1 and Disney at this year’s Las Vegas Grand Prix.

The partnership, first announced earlier in 2025, will officially begin in November with a special performance created by Disney Live Entertainment. The show will feature Mickey Mouse and other classic Disney characters performing in front of the Bellagio fountains, providing a striking backdrop as the city prepares for one of the most glamorous weekends on the F1 calendar.

Mickey and Friends will also join fans on the pit lane walk in front of the purpose-built pit building that serves as the centerpiece of the Las Vegas race. Alongside the entertainment, a range of exclusive merchandise will be released, with the first items available in early November.

In a press release, Disney confirmed that several iconic Las Vegas venues, including the Venetian Resort, will take part in the celebrations.

It read: “The elevated capsule collection will be available to shop on-site beginning November 8 at the F1 Las Vegas Hub Presented by American Express inside the Venetian Resort Las Vegas, with select items available on DisneyStore.com in North America.”

Tasia Filippatos, president of Disney Consumer Products, said: “The Disney brand represents the power of storytelling, creativity and connection values that resonate deeply with fans and partners alike worldwide. We are thrilled to be uniting sports, pop culture and entertainment in a way that delivers an unforgettable experience for both Mickey and Friends and F1 fans globally.”

The Las Vegas Grand Prix weekend will mark the first major activation of the Disney Formula 1 partnership, blending two of the world’s biggest entertainment brands in a uniquely Vegas-style celebration.
