Dude Perfect and Samsung Galaxy today announced that the 2025 Dude Perfect HERO Tour will be powered by Samsung Galaxy devices, including the Galaxy S25 Ultra<\/a>. The Dudes will also leverage Google Gemini to enhance each show with interactive technology, immersive digital moments, and real-time fan engagement.<\/p>\n

In 21 shows across 20 U.S. cities, the Dudes will leverage the capabilities of Samsung Galaxy and Google Gemini to help plan and navigate their trip across the U.S. and capture unique moments. On July 9 Dude Perfect will also be flexing a new addition to their tour \u2014 unfolding the next wave of innovation from Samsung.<\/a><\/p>\n

Samsung\u2019s Galaxy S25 Ultra<\/a> \u2014 with its 200MP camera, vivid display, and long battery life \u2014 will be featured throughout the tour. Combined with support from Google Gemini, the partnership promotes new ways for creators and fans to connect through real-time interaction, personalized content, and shareable moments on and off the stage. Gemini will also be integrated directly into the live show, powering a new interactive trivia segment where it acts as the ultimate \u201cphone-a-friend,\u201d helping fans answer questions in real time.<\/p>\n

Founded in 2009 by five college friends making sports trickshot videos, Dude Perfect\u2019s YouTube channel has become the biggest sports account on YouTube with more than 60 million subscribers. Dude Perfect has since expanded into a creator-led entertainment company focused on family-friendly sports and lifestyle content.<\/p>\n

At a time when audiences are seeking more authentic, interactive, and family-friendly entertainment, the HERO Tour<\/em> is helping set the blueprint for live fan experiences in creator-led platforms. For the first time, Dude Perfect is introducing a pre-show outdoor Fan Activation Zone at every venue where fans can become the \u201csixth Dude\u201d and try real trick shots for themselves, from a 12-foot water bottle flip to an impossible football throw challenge. The experience gives fans a rare chance to step into the world they\u2019ve been watching for the past 16 years and try the very stunts that first drew them in. Samsung\u2019s sponsorship will help bring this new interactive zone to life at no cost to attendees, ensuring local families can participate in the experience regardless of ticket level.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs the fandom for Dude Perfect continues to grow, we are excited to have partners that grow with us and support the essence of elevating the experience of our fans,\u201d said Andrew Yaffe, CEO of Dude Perfect. \u201cWith Samsung, their phones will not only be a part of the HERO Tour but an active contributor of each and every show for both the Dudes on stage and the fans in the stands.\u201d<\/p>\n

Samsung\u2019s support comes as the HERO Tour evolves into a more immersive, fan-driven experience. Alongside fan-favorite segments like \u201cCool Not Cool,\u201d live battles, and surprise athlete appearances, this year\u2019s tour adds real-time voting, interactive digital elements, and expanded access points that connect fans to the action like never before, both inside the arena and out. The partnership also reflects the trust Dude Perfect has built with its community. Sponsors like Samsung help bring additional value to the tour \u2014 such as keeping the Fan Activation Zone free for families \u2014 while aligning with a brand that prioritizes meaningful, authentic fan engagement.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\n\t\t\"Galaxy\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t<\/div>\n

\u201cAt Samsung, we champion those who dare to challenge convention and build communities that are accessible for technology users of all ages,\u201d said Olga Suvorova<\/a>, Vice President, Mobile eXperience Marketing at Samsung Electronics America. \u201cDude Perfect has been changing the game for more than 16 years through community and entertainment, and as the technology landscape has evolved, they have grown with us. We\u2019re proud to partner with them to bring the Galaxy innovation to life on stage in fun and creative ways and we can\u2019t wait to see them unfold the new addition to their tour on July 9.\u201d<\/p>\n

As the presenting partner of the tour, Samsung and Google Gemini will be featured prominently across all signage, digital assets, and at the Fan Activation Zone through a custom co-branded HERO Tour logo. Additionally, behind-the-scenes social content spotlighting Samsung and Gemini will be released throughout the tour, giving fans a deeper look into the experience as it unfolds. This collaboration builds on an existing relationship, as Samsung Displays are already a key part of DPHQ3, Dude Perfect\u2019s headquarters in Frisco, Texas.<\/p>\n
