Ahead of one of Formula 1’s biggest race weekends, Lando Norris wanted a standout fan experience that would turn heads across Silverstone Circuit. ARC UK delivered, designing, producing and installing more than 6,000m² of custom graphics across four spectator grandstands, all within a live motorsport environment.
A project of this scale came with its own set of challenges. The brief was challenging. The visuals must be unforgettable for fans – while working around tight event schedules, strict health and safety requirements, and the kind of visibility a Formula 1 weekend demands. It took meticulous planning, large-format production expertise and tightly coordinated installation teams, but ARC UK transformed key spectator areas into striking branded spaces that stood out both trackside and on TV.
The finished installation made a real impact at one of Formula 1’s flagship events. It strengthened fan engagement, sharpened venue branding, and earned praise from organisers and stakeholders alike.

The activation needed to resonate with fans, create strong visual impact for television audiences and maintain a consistent identity throughout multiple spectator locations. With thousands of attendees and significant media exposure expected, every detail required careful execution.
