May 15th, 2025 – In a city known for its superlatives, the 2025 Monaco Grand Prix is about to welcome a spectacle that rivals the race itself. Debuting May 23–25, RD Grand Prix, A Superyacht Experience, is the brainchild of Rosé Day and Agenxy Universe—a bold, immersive weekend aboard a 180-foot superyacht moored in the heart of Monte Carlo. Equal parts entertainment hub, culinary showcase, and brand activation playground, RD Grand Prix reimagines what it means to experience Formula 1 from the water’s edge.
Helmed by industry powerhouses Ben Biscotti and Ashleigh Hillier, this premiere event blurs the lines between hospitality, luxury lifestyle, and cultural programming. With panoramic views of Port Hercule and direct access to F1’s pulse, the superyacht transforms into a floating world of curated indulgence—designed to engage the senses and leave a lasting impression.
The three-day itinerary reads like a masterclass in modern luxury. The kickoff party on Friday night, May 23, sets the tone with a private performance by five-time Grammy-nominated Robin Thicke. Hosted by actor and artist Evan Ross and energized by sets from DJs Ruckus, Cruz, and Pookie, the evening promises both intimacy and star power.
Saturday and Sunday will cater to race-day excitement with daytime viewing events from 11 AM to 5 PM, seamlessly blending adrenaline with elegance. The finale—a Sunday night invite-only celebration—caps the weekend with a yet-to-be-revealed world-renowned DJ performance and a celebrity-studded guest list.
A central pillar of RD Grand Prix’s prestige is its culinary program, curated by The Next Iron Chef winner and two-Michelin-starred chef Marc Forgione. In partnership with kitchenware innovator HexClad, Forgione will craft a gourmet menu that reflects the weekend’s elevated ethos. Think truffle barbajuan, lobster salad, tuna tataki, and a showstopping rib of beef flambéed with whisky—each dish prepared using HexClad’s precision-engineered cookware. A live bump bar will serve oysters, N25 caviar, and hiramasa, adding to the decadence.
On the beverage front, guests will savor premium offerings from globally recognized partners: RUMOR Rosé, Famille Perrin Wines, Tequila Centinela, Cognac Coutanseaux Aîné, Heaven Sake, Heineken, Red Bull, 100 Coconuts, and non-alcoholic alternatives like French Bloom and Almave. Coutanseaux Aîné will also present an interactive cognac tasting and education journey onboard—adding refinement to every pour.
RD Grand Prix is more than an entertainment experience—it’s a curated lifestyle showcase. A private art exhibition by renowned contemporary artist Fred Allard will explore the intersections of fashion and Formula 1, with collectible works available for acquisition.
The onboard boutique will feature pieces by standout designers including luxury swimwear label Oceanus, bespoke menswear from Live Fast Die Young, and fashion-forward outerwear by Alpha Industries—creating a Riviera-meets-runway moment against the Monaco coastline.
This high-impact weekend represents the confluence of seasoned production, hospitality, and design minds. Biscotti—Co-Founder and President of 1iota Productions—leads the charge alongside nightlife impresarios Sylvain Bitton, JT Torregiani, and David Jarrett. Event Eleven’s Tony Schubert lends his expertise as an award-winning planner and creative designer. Meanwhile, Hillier brings her unique edge as the founder of Agenxy, known for pioneering the first-ever floating showcase and redefining global Formula 1 brand activations.
Rosé Day, celebrated for its five sold-out summer events in Los Angeles, is expanding its signature blend of Hollywood glam and refined hospitality to international waters—marking its fifth year with a move that feels as bold as it is strategic.
By anchoring the Monaco Grand Prix with an event that’s as layered and ambitious as the race itself, RD Grand Prix is poised to become more than a weekend spectacle—it’s a benchmark for the future of luxury brand engagement. As the engines roar along Circuit de Monaco, this 180-foot stage will deliver a performance all its own, redefining what it means to experience Formula 1 at the pinnacle of elegance and exclusivity.
