contents A tuple $(G_1,\dots,G_n)$ of graphs on the same vertex set of size $n$ is said to be Hamilton-universal if for every map $χ: [n]\to[n]$ there exists a Hamilton cycle whose $i$-th edge comes from $G_{χ(i)}$. Bowtell, Morris, Pehova and Staden proved an analog of Dirac's theorem in this setting, namely that if $δ(G_i)\geq (1/2+o(1))n$ then $(G_1,\dots,G_n)$ is Hamilton-universal. Combining McDiarmid's coupling and a colorful version of the Friedman-Pippenger tree embedding technique, we establish a similar result in the setting of sparse random graphs, showing that there exists $C$ such that if the $G_i$ are independent random graphs sampled from $G(n,p)$, where $p\geq C\log n/n$, then $(G_1,\dots,G_n)$ is Hamilton-universal with high probability.
