Formula One star Lando Norris celebrated his 24th birthday in a grand style this week, with a special party thrown by luxury travel brand TUMI. Timed to coincide with Saturday’s F1 Las Vegas Grand Prix race, the party took place at the TUMI store in Caesar’s Palace. Norris was presented with a suitcase-inspired cake in his McLaren team’s signature “papaya” colorway, a nod to his racing team’s colors. The event was not just a celebration of Norris’s birthday, but also an opportunity to showcase the TUMI | McLaren 60th Anniversary collection, which was launched earlier this year with Norris as the official ambassador.
The collection celebrates the six-decade history of the McLaren racing team, with classic TUMI pieces reworked in McLaren’s signature black and papaya colors. As a longstanding admirer of TUMI’s products, Norris is frequently seen with his TUMI “Torque” sling bag and has been a vocal advocate for the brand. The TUMI x McLaren collection also includes a “Velocity” backpack and the Aero International Expandable Carry-On. Norris has been an integral part of the collection’s promotional campaign, which was titled “Unpack Tomorrow.” This campaign was a nod to TUMI’s commitment to pushing the envelope in terms of performance and design, mirroring Norris’s own commitment to excellence as a Formula One driver.
Looking ahead to his next race, Norris is set to close out the 2023 Formula One season in Abu Dhabi next weekend. Prior to that, he is hoping for yet another podium finish at the F1 Vegas race. Last-minute tickets to the Las Vegas Grand Prix are still available online for anyone wanting to catch the thrilling race.
For fans who are unable to attend the race in person, the Formula One Vegas Grand Prix can be watched on ESPN or live-streamed through ESPN+. Formula One enthusiasts can also experience the race from the comfort of their homes, thanks to these streaming options. Additionally, the official ambassador, Lando Norris, has also expressed his excitement for the race and hopes for a successful run.
Norris’ association with TUMI goes beyond the promotional aspect. His genuine interest in the brand’s products and his active participation in the promotion of the TUMI | McLaren 60th Anniversary collection reflect a deeper partnership that goes beyond a mere business agreement.
