Standalone tickets for the first-ever Formula 1 Heineken Silver Las Vegas Grand Prix sold out quickly and well in advance of the event. The Las Vegas F1 race is set to take place from Nov. 16-18, 2023.
For all three days of F1 in Las Vegas, ticket prices started at $500 for Standing Room — only for passes near The Venetian MSG Sphere. The ticket prices for the weekend elsewhere on the circuit began at $2,000. The most expensive tickets for the weekend of F1 in Las Vegas were more than $10,000.
There are only two ways to get Vegas F1 tickets today.
Numerous F1 Vegas weekend passes are available on secondary ticketing sites for more than double face value. Additionally, most Nevada casinos on the Strip purchased tickets to sell as package deals.

The hotel and Grand Prix ticket deal require guests to stay at the property for three nights to procure a weekend ticket. Most properties are just including tickets that anyone can buy. However, one Vegas Strip casino operator is offering a viewing location exclusive to guests at its properties.
MGM Resorts Las Vegas F1 ticket packages
MGM Resorts will build grandstands to watch the Las Vegas Grand Prix in front of its most iconic property. The only way to sit in the Bellagio Grandstands in front of the fountains and iconic casino is to stay at a participating MGM Resorts property for three nights.
Steve Zanella, MGM Resorts’ chief commercial officer, said:
“In just over a year, F1 fans from around the globe will see how Las Vegas throws a party. In addition to the Bellagio Grandstands, which will set new standards for event viewing, we will create a round-the-clock celebration worthy of this international spectacular.”
Guests can stay at one of the following MGM Resorts properties to get a seat right in the middle of the Vegas Strip on the F1 circuit:
- Aria (and Vdara)
- Bellagio
- Mandalay Bay (and Delano)
- MGM Grand
- Park MGM
- New York-New York
- Luxor
- Excalibur
MGM Resorts guests can also choose seats in the Paddock Grandstands if they prefer to be elsewhere on the circuit. The package prices are the same for either location.
Las Vegas F1 prices at MGM start at $2,827 per night for a hotel room with a single seat for the race. Adding another ticket to the package will make the starting price $5,655 per night for two seats in either location.
Each property charges a resort fee for the hotel rooms. There was an hour-long wait to purchase the packages shortly after launching due to overwhelming demand. That wait cleared up quickly and making reservations was back to normal before the afternoon.
Caesars F1 Vegas packages
Caesars released its F1 hotel and ticket packages during the Formula One launch party for the race at Caesars Palace. Unlike the MGM Resorts packages, Caesars’ guests can choose a hotel and casino off the Vegas Strip.
Sean McBurney, regional president of Caesars Entertainment, said:
“We couldn’t be more thrilled to be right in the center of what’s sure to be one of the most exciting nights Las Vegas has ever seen. Our properties are terrifically positioned to make accessing the race, grandstands and paddocks as easy as possible. If you’re looking to experience a night of adrenaline and competition in Las Vegas, we hope to see you at one of our properties next November.”
