New York, NY November 6, 2025 — World-renowned Formula 1 car designer Gordon Murray will be honored with amfAR’s Award of Innovation at the second annual Las Vegas gala on Friday, November 21, 2025. The event will be presented in partnership with the FORMULA 1 LAS VEGAS GRAND PRIX and will take place at Wynn Las Vegas. Multi-Platinum pop sensation Ava Max will grace the stage for a special performance.
As previously announced, actor and philanthropist Jeremy Renner will be presented with amfAR’s Philanthropic Leadership Award for his generous commitment to a range of charitable causes.
In addition to music performances by headliner Ava Max and CBS’s The Road contestants Cassidy Daniels and Channing Wilson, who will open the night, the evening will feature a seated dinner, exquisite works of art, and luxury experiences and a live auction of rare classic and contemporary automobiles including the last Gordon Murray S1 LM supercar.
As an official partner of the FORMULA 1 LAS VEGAS GRAND PRIX, amfAR is able to offer gala attendees access to exclusive premium race weekend packages, including Wynn Grid Club (3-day) and Formula 1 Paddock Club™ (1, 2, or 3-day) packages.
Last year’s inaugural event was also hosted at Wynn Las Vegas and was hosted by renowned comedian Jay Leno and featured a special performance by the legendary Diana Ross. Academy Award-nominated actor, writer, and director Sylvester Stallone and accomplished entrepreneur, philanthropist, and model Jennifer Stallone were honored with amfAR’s Award of Inspiration.
HIV/AIDS is far from over in the U.S. and Nevada has one of the highest infection rates in the country. Effective treatments, many of them developed with the help of amfAR’s groundbreaking research, have rendered HIV a manageable condition for many people but it still requires lifelong adherence to medication. Funds raised at benefit events like amfAR Las Vegas are a vital source of support for amfAR’s efforts to develop a cure for HIV that could help end the AIDS epidemic once and for all. They will also help amfAR leverage its expertise and expand its research focus to address other pressing global health threats.
The evening’s Signature Sponsors will be RM Sotheby’s and Roberto Cavalli. Wynn Las Vegas is the official hotel and resort partner for amfAR Las Vegas. The event will be in collaboration with 101 Studios and supported by Rémy Martin and Champagne Telmont.
