American Marconi Wireless News - Dolphin Subsidiary The Door and Its DISRPT Division Represents U.S. SailGP Around Major U.S. Race Events

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / June 2, 2026 / Dolphin (NASDAQ:DLPN) announced today that its subsidiaries The Door and its DISRPT division represent the U.S. SailGP Team, which competes in SailGP, one of the world's fastest-growing sports and entertainment properties, in connection with the league's major U.S. race events. The engagement encompasses this past weekend's Mubadala New York Sail Grand Prix, held May 30-31 on New York Harbor, as well as the Bermuda Sail Grand Prix, held May 9-10 in Hamilton, Bermuda. The relationship reflects Dolphin's expanding footprint across sports, hospitality, experiential marketing, and culture-forward entertainment.

The Mubadala New York Sail Grand Prix delivered one of the most dynamic live-event experiences of the year, set against the backdrop of the Manhattan skyline and the waters of New York Harbor. Far beyond a sailing competition, the weekend brought together premium hospitality experiences, high-energy fan engagement at the Heineken River Deck at Pier 17, and a who's who of sports, business, fashion, and entertainment. Celebrity and media presence underscored what has become a defining characteristic of SailGP: the ability to unite culturally engaged audiences and major lifestyle partners, including Tommy Hilfiger, Rolex, CìROC, and Mubadala, in a single, electrifying environment that confirms SailGP's position at the intersection of luxury, nightlife, and elite sport.

Earlier this month, the Bermuda Sail Grand Prix offered a distinctly different but equally compelling chapter in SailGP's growing global story. Set against the island's iconic pink sand beaches and turquoise waters, the Bermuda stop delivered a bucket-list access experience that resonated strongly with premium travel and lifestyle audiences, attracting coverage from outlets spanning luxury travel, business, and sport. Together, Bermuda and New York illustrate the breadth of SailGP's momentum across the league's growing international calendar and reinforce its ability to combine elite athletic competition with world-class experiential and destination travel appeal.

"The U.S. SailGP Team is one of the most compelling stories in sports right now: an American team climbing the global standings, backed by an ownership group that genuinely reflects the culture," said Adriane Jefferson, Founder and Managing Partner of DISRPT at The Door. "Pair that with championship competition, world-class hospitality, and real cultural energy, and you open a far broader entry point for fans and partners. New York this past weekend was proof of it."
