BMW & Yuga Join Hands For ApeFest

In his latest blog post, the Yuga Labs co-founder Greg Solano has announced that they have partnered with BMW, a world-renowned manufacturer of luxury automobiles and motorcycles, for the ApeFest 2025. BMW first attended ApeFest Hong Kong in 2023, where the car company brought out a BMW i5 M60 for a digital light show experience that let Apes project their primates onto the car.

Third year running that we partner with @BMW at ApeFest. An incredible partner for the club.

Then, in 2024, BMW aped in even harder, launching the Bored Ape Bimmer Club, releasing a line of BMW x BAYC merch, inviting community members to go for the ride of a lifetime in a BAYC-themed mixed reality race that was anything but boring, and even collaborating with BAYC member Rida to create a 1/1 “ApeMobile” worth nearly $100,000 that’s now owned by BAYC member Weidner Dennis.

In the meantime, Yuga Labs and BMW have not laid out their plans for this year’s event. From past events, people expect BMW to provide interactive experiences connecting their physical vehicles with the digital world of Bored Apes. This includes an “Ape Car,” where attendees can personalize a physical BMW with their own Ape through projection mapping and a mixed-reality driving experience where a virtual world with BAYC elements is overlaid onto a physical one.
