Few Formula 1 events have received more international media coverage prior to hosting their first race than the Las Vegas Grand Prix. New for 2023, 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 2023, performers included Major Lazer, Mark Ronson and Cirque du Soleil.
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.
