Very few races in Formula 1 history had as much hype as the inaugural Las Vegas Grand Prix. Despite some initial setbacks on the opening day, the 2023 Las Vegas Grand Prix produced an entertaining on-track spectacle with a Saturday night Grand Prix full of overtaking and close battles. Charles Leclerc secured pole position but it was Max Verstappen who claimed a record-breaking 20th win of the year for the Red Bull team. In 2024, Mercedes dominated the Las Vegas Grand Prix, with George Russell winning from pole position.

With around 100,000 tickets available per day, a weekend attendance figure somewhere in the region of 300,000 is expected at the 2024 Las Vegas Grand Prix. The inaugural 4-day event was attended by 315,000, making it the seventh-best-attended race weekend of the year. Attendance dropped slightly in 2024, when the event was held over three days, to 306,000.

Formula 1 admitted that last year’s ticket sales for the Las Vegas Grand Prix were “disappointing” and missed expectations. As a result, there is an expanded ticket offering for the 2025 Las Vegas Grand Prix, with a selection of more affordable tickets on sale.

2025 Las Vegas Grand Prix Ticket Prices Reduced

In 2024, Stateside buyers had clearly wised up and were no longer willing to pay astronomical prices for Las Vegas Grand Prix tickets. Many prospective attendees left it until the last minute in the hope of even higher discounts on ticket prices. Tickets prices were reduced as the race date approached last year, with the organizers attempting to fill the grandstands for the second edition of the race.

That may not be the case in 2025, with ticket prices starting at a much lower base level than in 2024. There are a selection of new grandstands in the ticket offer this year, including stands overlooking Turns 3 and 4. Tickets for the race went on sale in early April.

All-inclusive hospitality packages are also available from F1 Experiences, Formula 1’s official ticket package partner. As well as premium trackside hospitality, these packages include other perks such as pit lane walks, paddock tours and exclusive appearances by famous faces from the world of Formula 1.

How to Get to Las Vegas Strip Circuit

There are plenty of ways to get around in Las Vegas – from car, to taxi or Uber, or even limousine (it is Vegas, after all!). If you’re staying in one of the many hotels close to the circuit, it may be easier to simply walk to the track for each day of F1 action. Race organisers strongly encourage those able to walk to the track to do so. (Walking directions from strip hotels to different parts of the track in 2023 were inadequate – and sometimes downright misleading – for the inaugural race; let’s hope the organisers worked on this for 2024!)

Getting Around has further details on public transport in Las Vegas – such as bus, tram and the monorail, which runs 24 hours a day on race weekend. Note that a number of road closures will be in place to accommodate the Grand Prix weekend – be sure to check before making travel plans. Download the official Las Vegas Grand Prix app for interactive maps which will help you find your way to your designated ticket zone. The app also shows real-time road closures.

How Much Does it Cost to Attend the 2025 Las Vegas Grand Prix?

Although reduced for 2025, tickets for the Las Vegas Grand Prix are still not exactly cheap. The average cost of tickets for the 2024 Las Vegas Grand Prix were the most expensive of any of the 24 races on the 2024 Formula 1 calendar – and by quite a margin. The average cost of 3-day tickets in Las Vegas last year was $1,617. It’s a figure which was down slightly on the 2023 cost, but still a whopping $739 more than the average cost of tickets for the Miami Grand Prix, second on the list.

We estimate that the average fan will spend around $2,400 USD on a trip to the 2025 Las Vegas Grand Prix. That price includes 3-day grandstand seats, a three night stay in a local three star hotel, plus daily spending money. Budget Planner has a detailed breakdown on what you can expect to spend at the 2025 Las Vegas Grand Prix.

Trackside at the 2025 Las Vegas Grand Prix

In 2023, the Las Vegas Grand Prix was one of the only races on the Formula 1 calendar at which the F1 cars were the only on-track action of the weekend. Last year, there was one support series, in the form of Ferrari Challenge. For 2025, it has been announced that the all-female F1 Academy series will complete the final races of its season at Las Vegas Strip Circuit.

The F1 race weekend comprises of two practice sessions on Thursday night, final practice and qualifying on Friday night and the Grand Prix itself on Saturday night.

The T-Mobile Zone at Sphere is the place to be for all the trackside entertainment – which in 2024 included headline performances from OneRepublic, Alesso, Ludacris and The Beaches. Whilst the biggest names perform on the T-Mobile Zone, there were three additional concert areas at the circuit in 2024. Quintessential Las Vegas shows from the likes of Cirque du Soleil and Blue Man Group also entertained the crowds in the last two seasons and are likely to do so again this year.

In a change to previous years, it appears that all-inclusive food and (non-alcoholic) drink is no longer available to fans with grandstand seats at the Las Vegas Strip Circuit. Instead, it will cost extra to purchase food.
