In a historic first for Formula 1, all 10 teams – drivers, team principals, and their 2025 liveries – will converge under one roof for a spectacular collective season launch event at London’s The O2 next February.
This unprecedented event, set for February 18, 2025, will kick off F1’s 75th anniversary and will bring fans closer to the heart of the action than ever before.
With a full production led by Brian Burke of BrianBurkeCreative – renowned for his work last year on the Las Vegas Grand Prix ceremonies – the launch event will feature live entertainment and interactive interviews with top F1 personalities.
Formula 1 chief executive Stefano Domenicali spoke to the significance of the sport’s 2025 world premiere.
“For the first time we will bring together our fans, all 20 superstars of our sport and some very special guests to officially kick off our new season and mark our 75th year of racing,” said the Italian.
“With 2025 set to be a classic season following all the drama so far for 2024, this is a fantastic opportunity for fans of all ages to experience up-close the incredible entertainment spectacle that is Formula 1.”
Three tiers of tickets are available, starting at £58, offering prime spots within The O2. Tickets go on sale on November 15th at 1000 GMT via theo2.co.uk/F175live.
In addition to live attendance, fans can also join the action remotely, with streaming and broadcast details to be announced soon. The event’s organizers aim to make this milestone celebration accessible to all fans, whether in the arena or watching from around the world.
“The FIA is delighted to join our colleagues at FOM and all the teams in the staging of the inaugural Formula 1 season launch event,” commented FIA president Mohammed Ben Sulayem.
"The occasion will also serve as a fitting prelude to a celebration of the 75th anniversary of the sport throughout the 2025 season.”
As a reminder, Formula 1 teams will kick off their 2025 campaign in Melbourne, Australia on March 14 - 16.
