Cadillac F1 announces free Miami fan experience for 2026 grand prix weekend

Cadillac has announced its plans to take over Miami's Design District ahead of its maiden home grand prix, with a fan space it is branding the 'Cadillac Formula 1 Team Miami Headquarters'.

Running from 2-3 May during the 2026 Miami Grand Prix weekend, the American outfit will transform Jungle Plaza into its own fan hub, which will be free to enter.

The two-day event will feature racing simulators, exclusive team and Tommy Hilfiger merchandise, local Miami food vendors, including Chug's Diner, Kween Patty's, Navi, and Wolf of Tacos, nail art, live music and Jim Beam cocktails. 

Driver Sergio Perez is also set to make an appearance on Saturday evening, after the sprint race and grand prix qualifying earlier in the day. 

Fans who visit the Cadillac Formula 1 Team Miami Headquarters will also be able to watch the race live on Apple TV.

"There is no better place than Miami to celebrate the Cadillac Formula 1 Team’s first race in the United States," Tyler Epp, Cadillac F1's global head of commercial strategy, said.

"As the home team, our goal is to deliver action directly to the heart of Miami and bring fans together. We’re building this journey from the ground up, and we want the community right there with us.

"Cadillac Formula 1 Team Miami Headquarters is about more than just the cars on the track — it’s about the people, the culture and the shared excitement of being part of America’s newest racing chapter."

Cadillac joined the F1 grid in 2026 with the experienced driver line-up of Perez and Valtteri Bottas. As the team adjusts to the championship and the new regulations introduced from this year, which feature an almost 50:50 split between internal combustion and electric power, it currently sits 10th in the constructors' championship standings ahead of Aston Martin. 

The 2026 Miami Grand Prix will take place at the Hard Rock Stadium from 1-3 May.
