Few Formula 1 events received more international media coverage prior to hosting their first race than the Las Vegas Grand Prix. The Saturday night race takes place on a new street circuit – the Las Vegas Strip Circuit – which incorporates the famous Las Vegas Strip as part of its layout. 315,000 fans attended the inaugural running of the event in November 2023; despite issues with the track surface that curtailed much of the on-track action on the opening day, the race itself was one of the most exciting of the entire F1 season. In addition to three nights of Formula 1 action on track, running from Thursday to Saturday, fans are able to soak up the Las Vegas atmosphere with a range of trackside activities and concerts. In 2024, performers include OneRepublic, Alesso, Ludacris and The Beaches.
Las Vegas Grand Prix Access & Orientation
Unlike many of the other races on the Formula 1 calendar, your ticket for the Grand Prix only grants you access to the zone in which your chosen grandstand or viewing area is located. It is not possible to explore different areas of the Las Vegas Strip Circuit over the race weekend. Grandstands are located in the East Harmon Zone, the West Harmon Zone, The Mirage Zone and the T-Mobile Zone at Sphere. The latter zone is also where you’ll find the circuit’s General Admission offering. There are a number of other zones which are for those with hospitality tickets only, such as the Paddock Zone, the North Koval Zone, the South Koval Zone and the Hilton Grand Vacations Zone. View the 2024 Las Vegas Strip Circuit interactive map.
Rideshare and walking are the recommended methods of getting to the Las Vegas Grand Prix. Designated pick-up and drop-off points are located at Virgin Hotels Las Vegas (closest to the start/finish straight and the East Harmon Zone) and the Hughes Centre (closest to the T-Mobile at Sphere Zone). Download the Las Vegas Grand Prix app for interactive maps and information on the best walking routes from the nearby hotels to your seats.

Road closures at the 2025 Las Vegas Grand Prix
To accommodate the Grand Prix, a number of road closures are in place across the Grand Prix weekend in Las Vegas. Soft closures begin at 15:00 on each day of the race weekend (from Thursday to Saturday), before full road closures come into place from 17:00. If you’re traveling from outside of the city, we recommend arriving well in advance of these closures in order to avoid disruption to your journey. Roads will re-open in the early hours – at 02:00 – each day. Live road closures can also be tracked in the Las Vegas Grand Prix app. More information is here.
