Building on almost a decade of collaboration, Formula 1, an international single-seat automobile racing competition, has officially announced the extension and significant expansion of its global partnership with Heineken. This new multi-year deal is built on the old collaboration that has actually amplified the fan experience as well as the sporting spectacle at and beyond the Grand Prix events. It also highlights the important role played by Heineken in celebrating Formula 1 after joining forces in 2016.
The new multi-year deal will ensure the continued presence of Heineken as Formula 1’s major global partner. This presence will include expanded responsibilities and rights, which will begin in 2027. This deal also reinforces Heineken’s branding at the circuits. This means it will have naming rights to various Grand Prix, like the Chinese, Las Vegas, and São Paulo races. Additionally, it will also be the title sponsor of various events. This includes the historic Silverstone race and the recently launched Madrid Grand Prix. It will cement the influence of Heineken within the sport.

The extended partnership is actually centered on innovative fan engagement. This will be both on and off the track. There will be various interactive experiences, fan-first activations, expanded presence at the F1 Fan Zone, and luxury hospitality within the paddock.
The core pillar of the partnership will be Heineken’s message of responsible drinking. One of the main products to be promoted here will be the 0.0 (zero-alcohol beer). It will be using the world-famous F1 stage to encourage positive drinking behaviour among the ever-expanding and diverse global sports audience.
Just like the past collaborations, Heinekens will continue to take charge of bringing world-class entertainment. The brand will take global music talent to another level to make the race weekend experiences extremely fun and memorable for everyone.

As a part of the renewal and celebrating it, Heineken has launched F1’s first-ever ‘season ticket’. It is basically a card that will grant the winner and their plus one access to every Grand Prix race, that too, for an entire season. Not only this, but this will also include comprehensive travel and accommodation for all 24 Grand Prix.
Their new strategic face also introduces the Star Fans campaign. This is actually designed to give the fans an opportunity to immerse themselves deeper into the F1 experience with innovative on-site experiences and amazing marketing techniques.
This renewal of partnership emphasizes the global value of Formula 1 as a fan engagement vehicle and marketing platform. It exemplifies how consumer brands can actually leverage technology, entertainment, and the cultural impact of motorsport in order to connect with their fans across the globe in an authentic manner.
