CAMPAIGN

Alongside the collection launch is a hero campaign led by a high-octane film from director Femi Ladi, following a Formula 1 driver as he wakes in a Las Vegas hotel room and rushes for the starting grid of the Vegas Grand Prix. The film features cameos from Palace riders Charlie Birch, Danny Brady, Kanin Garner, Jahmir Brown and Charlie Young.

Palace says:

“We are so hyped to be kitting out BWT Alpine F1 Team’s car, drivers and pit crew for the Las Vegas Grand Prix: a street race at night in one of the most mental and beautiful places on Earth.”

David Gendry, VP, Alpine Sponsoring, Partnerships and Communications says:

“We are super excited to unveil this unique collaboration with iconic brand Palace together with our partner Kappa. It was a first for Alpine to work on such a co-project where trendy fashion meets sports brands so perfectly. The creative process and exchanges these past few months have been incredible and it is with great pride that we unveil a unique livery for the A523, inspired by the desert that surrounds Las Vegas. The team will also proudly wear the Palace Kappa for Alpine team kit this weekend.”

Lorenzo Boglione, Vice President of BasicNet Group says:

"We are very proud to reveal this collaboration born from the union of two very important partners for us: Alpine, of which we have been the technical sponsor since the beginning of 2022, and Palace, which joins Kappa for the second time in just two years. The result is a fusion of sport and street style, celebrating the very DNA of our brand and our respective partners, creating a connection between two worlds that increasingly blends with each other."
