MIAMI — Formula 1’s Crypto.com Miami Grand Prix will introduce a new luxury hospitality attraction in 2026 with the debut of the MSC Yacht Club, a five-deck, super yacht–inspired structure set inside the circuit’s marina presented by MSC Cruises.

Event organizers confirmed in a news release Thursday that the MSC Yacht Club will launch during race weekend May 1–3, at the Miami International Autodrome, overlooking one of the track’s most action-packed sections.

From a single location, guests will have views of up to five turns, spanning Turns 5 through 9.

Organizers said it was designed to mirror the look and feel of a modern super yacht, the structure will feature immersive design, premium hospitality and elevated trackside viewing. It also marks the Miami Grand Prix’s biggest new hospitality offering since the unveiling of a new Paddock Club building in 2023.

Dining throughout the Yacht Club will be curated by Bagatelle, the internationally known hospitality brand, making it the culinary focal point of the reimagined marina.

The experience is inspired by MSC Cruises’ exclusive “ship-within-a-ship” Yacht Club concept found onboard its luxury vessels, according to an MSC spokesperson.

The revamped marina will also include a new general admission viewing area with an elevated platform near Turn 7, giving more fans closer access to the on-track action.
