Ladies and gentlemen, start your engines.
On Nov. 15-18, the Formula 1 Las Vegas Grand Prix is racing through the heart of Las Vegas and into Sin City’s F1 Las Vegas Strip Autodrome for the first time since the ’80s for four huge days of sports and entertainment.
However, you won’t have to be that high a roller to make it out to the track for the long weekend to catch star racers like Lewis Hamilton, Daniel Ricciardo, Lando Norris, U.S. superstar Logan Sargeant and 2023 World Champion Max Verstappen live.
Based on our findings, last-minute tickets are dropping quickly for the high-profile event.
At the time of publication, our team found three-day race passes — for Thursday, Nov. 16 through Saturday, Nov. 18 — going for $882 before fees on Vivid Seats.
While that may seem pricey, when you factor in that getting in would have run you $2000 had you bought tickets a year ago according to CNN, it’s a steal.
Single-day passes can be snagged for as low as $118 before fees.
Plus, should you attend the opening ceremony on Wednesday, Nov. 15, you’ll be treated to performances from John Legend, J Balvin, Journey, Keith Urban, Tiësto and many more.
