INVNT® and Formula E Partner to Deliver Fan Village at 2025 Monaco E-Prix
London, UK, May 01, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Formula E, the world's first all-electric motorsport championship, has once again joined forces with INVNT®, the global brand storytelling agency, to create a bold new fan experience for the 2025 Monaco E-Prix. Set against the backdrop of Monaco's iconic marina, the
Formula E Fan Village
will come to life on May 3–4, offering a free, immersive, and family-friendly activation designed to welcome fans of all ages and backgrounds into the electrifying world of Formula E.
The partnership builds on a series of successful collaborations between Formula E and INVNT, including the immersive Fan Village at the Portland E-Prix in Oregon and the global launch of the GEN3 Evo car in Valencia, the world's fastest, lightest, and most sustainable electric race car - capable of 0-60mph in just 1.82 seconds - 36% faster than the current GEN3 and 30% faster than a current F1 car. Together, the two organisations continue to raise the bar for what fan experiences can be across the world's most iconic motorsport stages.
'Our Fan Village plays a vital role in making the Monaco E-Prix not just a race, it's about creating space for new generations to fall in love with Formula E,'
said Agustin Delicado, VP, Event Operations, Formula E.
'Together with INVNT, we're building an inclusive, sustainable experience that deepens our connection with fans and communities at every level. From live entertainment and our Gaming Arena to educational exhibits and family-friendly activities - the Fan Village offers something for everyone to enjoy.'
At the Monaco E-Prix, the Formula E Fan Village will feature:
Sustainability is a core pillar of the village, with more than 85% of vendors sourced within 50 miles of Monaco, with a focus on reducing environmental impact, uplifting regional businesses, and celebrating local culture.
'We're proud to partner with Formula E once again to take a global brand to the next level of fan engagement,' said
Claudia Stephenson, Managing Director, EMEA at INVNT.
'This activation is powered by local culture and driven by purpose, from the food to the entertainment, to the sustainability embedded in every decision. Together, we're proving that high-impact experiences can be responsible, accessible and truly inclusive.'
This Formula E Fan Village in Monaco was brought to life through the continued partnership between INVNT and MSM Group (Media & Sport Management) - enhancing commercial solutions and service offerings tailored for talent and brands in the rapidly expanding motorsports industry.

Enrico Zanarini, CEO of MSM Group

Resident Evil 9 Lets You Swap Between First-Person And Third-Person Whenever You Want
Resident Evil Requiem, aka the game we are all going to refer to as Resident Evil 9, was revealed during last week's Summer Game Fest. The trailer didn't confirm what perspective Requiem will use, but now we know via a hands-off demo that when Capcom's latest horror game arrives in February 2026, it will feature both a first-person and third-person option. At Summer Game Fest, Kotaku's Kenneth Shepard attended a hands-off demo of Resident Evil Requiem, which featured a new character, Grace Ashcroft, strapped to a gurney in a decrepit and dirty hospital. We saw Grace in the game's first trailer. During the demo, she escaped from the building, found a lighter, and used a fuse to solve a puzzle. Eventually, without a weapon to defend herself, she ran into some creepy monsters. That's where the demo ended. All in all, pretty standard Resident Evil stuff! The entire demo up to this point was in first-person, similar toResident Evil 7 and Village. But then, at the very end, Capcom reloaded a save file and paused Requiem. They then switched to third-person for a moment before ending the demo. So we didn't get to see a ton of gameplay in that perspective, but it's clear that Capcom wants everyone to know that this time around, you'll be able to swap between first-person and third-person whenever you want. This is a departure from recent Resident Evil games, which have been first-person only. Some longtime Resident Evil fans didn't like this, and Capcom even added a third-person mode in Village after launch. Requiem launching with this is a big deal and a sign that Capcom is listening to longtime fans, even as it continues to experiment with its long-running series. Resident Evil Requiem launches on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC on February 27, 2026. . For the latest news, Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.

Bibhu Mohapatra Resort 2026 Collection
Last season, Bibhu Mohapatra broke from tradition. Instead of finding a famous historical woman to serve as his muse, the designer looked inward, building his collection around his pilgrimage to India to perform funeral rites for his brother and parents. Mohapatra debated exploring the emotional, intensely personal material through fashion. 'I'm not scared of change anymore,' he said. 'I'm ready to pivot.' For his resort 2026 offering, Mohapatra once again turned to his own life for inspiration. This time, he referenced a recent trip to his ancestral village, which he hadn't visited for 20 years. 'I connected immediately with all those things that I had left,' he said. Childhood summers spent playing in the rice paddies are translated into a recurring geometric embroidery, which is splashed across cocktail dresses and sweeping ballgowns alike. Mohapatra's interpretation of the monsoon season, a zig-zagging motif, is featured on a high-neck teal evening dress and a black column dress. A hundred-year-old jasmine vine in the village led the designer to create an ivory lace skirt set with 3D floral appliqués. Like the rest of the industry, Mohapatra is feeling the effects of tariffs. 'People become a little conscious about pricing,' he said. So when it comes to his own offering, 'it has to be absolutely unique, and the perceived value has to be right.' By tapping into his own lived experience, he is heading in the right direction.

Adapting to Hypercar from Formula E is 'so easy' for Pascal Wehrlein – here's why
One of the most high-profile rookies at this year's Le Mans 24 Hours, Porsche Penske Motorsport's Pascal Wehrlein feels adequately prepared for the demanding French classic. The former Formula 1 driver, DTM champion and reigning Formula E world champion took sixth on his endurance racing debut at the Daytona 24 Hours alongside Bryce Aron, Gianmaria Bruni and Tijmen van der Helm, then ninth at the Spa-Francorchamps 6 Hours with Kevin Estre and Laurens Vanthoor. Advertisement Wehrlein is now coming into Le Mans with a third set of team-mates, sharing the #4 Porsche 963 with Felipe Nasr and Nick Tandy. Following the test day, he feels confident in his ability to be quick, regardless of the Porsche LMDh prototype being extremely different to the Formula E machinery he drives most of the time – because it's too different for the comparison to be relevant in any way. 'Obviously I've driven many categories in my career so far, so in general I have a very good understanding of what a car needs to be quick,' the German explained. 'I've driven DTM, which is a prototype touring car; I've driven Formula 1, which has a lot of downforce; Formula E, and now LMDh. I would say I have quite a big toolbox of driving styles – and adapting quickly to it, I know what it takes. 'I feel like, also, the transition from Formula E to this car is so easy, because actually you don't have a wrong reference. The cars behave so differently that I don't compare it to Formula E, I don't take anything from that car, jump into this car and think, 'yeah but here it felt like that'. It's completely different cars. 'I would assume, for example, if I put myself 10 years back, and sat in a DTM car and then drove this car, there would be a lot more going on in my head: 'Yeah, but my DTM car is a bit like that, and now I'm in this'. It's so different. There's nothing to compare. It makes the transition quite smooth.' Pascal Wehrlein, TAG Heuer Porsche Formula E Team Pascal Wehrlein, TAG Heuer Porsche Formula E Team Team-mates Nasr and Tandy are competing at Le Mans for the sixth and 13th time respectively, with the Briton having won the race overall in 2015, which represents a wealth of experience for Wehrlein to lean on. Advertisement Asked by what advice his partners have given him, Wehrlein said: 'So much. I think it would exceed your report! 'They've been so supportive. Felipe and Nick, the whole team – even Laurens, Kevin in Spa, my other team-mates. 'I've been asking a lot of questions, just because I know there are a lot of rookie mistakes and errors you can do, and I just want to jump that step. I want to be as well prepared as I can. 'A lot of it is actually procedures – rules, regulations, slow zones, all this stuff. A penalty here can be so costly. 'Timo [Bernhard] has been very supportive, giving a lot of advice on traffic management – how to place your car, where to place it. Advertisement 'Jumping into the car, being on pace, on speed, that is not the thing. It's more about procedures, about how to be fast through the traffic and avoid losing a lot of time there. 'If you approach a corner and you see it's going to be tight to pass this LMP2 car or GT3 car, is it worth to push flat out and pass him, or will I not make it anyway, so it's better to save energy and save fuel? Just that – a bit of a different mentality.' Read Also: Ferrari 'clearly faster' than Toyota at Le Mans - Sebastien Buemi To read more articles visit our website.
