The collaboration is part of an ongoing partnership with David Barokas Group, with a reciprocal takeover planned in St. Tropez this summer.

Across the weekend, CASA NEOS’ lineup includes Seth Troxler, Mestiza, Chloé Caillet, and Jaden Thompson, positioning it as a central hub for F1 nightlife.

Running concurrently, Clase Azul México will execute its first-ever full-property takeover, anchoring the experience as the exclusive tequila partner across all three levels.
