Disney and Formula 1 announced Oct. 28 their collaboration will kick off at the Las Vegas Grand Prix in November. As revealed in May, the global relationship will “Fuel the Magic” for fans by blending world-class sports with Disney’s iconic storytelling and an exclusive Formula 1 merchandise line. 

As racing super fans, Disney’s Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Donald Duck, Daisy Duck, Goofy and Pluto will make appearances at the heart of the high-speed action on the Las Vegas Strip.

For the first time, maestro Mickey Mouse will take the stage in front of the Fountains of Bellagio for a performance from Disney Live Entertainment. The Mickey & Friends-inspired moment will offer fans an immersive show featuring music and pyrotechnics. 

To kick off race day festivities – and in celebration of 70 years of happiness – the Disneyland Band will bring its magic to the grid with a performance of the national anthem. Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse will also bring Disney magic to a community day to inspire Las Vegas kids. 

Ahead of the qualifying race, Formula 1 has invited Mickey & Friends to join a pitlane walk and is offering main grandstand ticket holders the chance to see the teams at work. For more information, visit F1LasVegasGP.com.  

“The Disney brand represents the power of storytelling, creativity and connection – values that resonate deeply with fans and partners alike worldwide,” Disney Consumer Products President Tasia Filippatos.

“We are thrilled to be uniting sports, pop culture and entertainment in a way that delivers an unforgettable experience for both Mickey & Friends and F1 fans globally.” 

“Our collaboration with Disney builds on a shared passion for storytelling, innovation and creating memorable moments,” said Formula 1 Chief Commercial Officer and Las Vegas Grand Prix President and CEO Emily Prazer.

“As we look ahead to the global Disney’s Mickey & Friends and Formula 1 launch in 2026, the Fuel the Magic program will bring two iconic brands together to give fans of all ages a race weekend filled with creativity, entertainment and a touch of magic.”

In November, the Disney x Formula 1 merchandise line will debut blending Mickey & Friends with the Las Vegas Grand Prix. The collection will be available on-site beginning Nov. 8 at F1 Las Vegas Hub Presented by American Express at The Venetian, with items available on DisneyStore.com in North America. 

On race day, Nov. 22, 2025, fans in the U.S. can join the celebration by watching on ESPN or the ESPN App. Fans across the globe can watch the Las Vegas Grand Prix via their local official F1 broadcaster. 

The “Fuel the Magic” campaign will continue through the 2026 and 2027 Formula 1 seasons, designed to ignite fans’ passion trackside and at home.
