The first-ever Las Vegas GP is slated to start from November 16, and this will be the FIA‘s most ambitious project coming to life. The massive affair is believed to be the final move to make Formula 1 a household name in the United States, surpassing the success of other franchise like NASCAR and IndyCar. As the costliest Grand Prix in F1 history the tickets for the high-profile race do not come cheap at all.
Despite the exorbitant prices, most of the tickets to the Las Vegas GP have already been sold out. The race circuit, being built on 3.8 miles of the famous Vegas Strip, will have several grandstands offering different views of the Grand Prix. While the prices for entry to the different grandstands are not the same, they are all north of $1000.
Given the high base price, it is no surprise the grandstands at the Las Vegas GP with the most expensive tickets will only have VIPs on the guestlist. The costliest ticket at the Heineken Silver Las Vegas GP will even offer the buyers exclusive entry to the Paddock Club–the VIP area where the who’s-who of the sports world, Hollywood, and the business moghuls are expected to be.
What is the most in-demand place for viewing the Las Vegas GP?
Thanks to the 3.8 mile-long race track, the grandstands have been placed at various locations flanking the path that the F1 cars will follow during the race. But the vantage point that will offer the best view of the entire race is the Paddock Club. It is slated to be an elite arena at the center of the circuit. The entrants at the Paddock Club will have the opportunity for exclusive interview sessions with the F1 drivers and Team Bosses, and they will be treated to an endless buffet of delectable gourmet food.
While all of it might sound enticing, the heart-wrenching fact for most fans is that one ticket to the paddock club costs a whopping £17,500. But one lucky fan from the US might win a pair of tickets to the elite section by entering the Dream Vegas Weekend competition sponsored by the MoneyGram Haas F1 team.
What is the price of the Las Vegas F1 tickets?
As Formula 1 promises a Superbowl-style entertainment extravaganza at the Las Vegas GP, the fans have been hounding for tickets to the event. The grandstands at the different locations have their own tickets with different price tags. The cheapest tickets for those who are on a budget would be the $500 worth General Admission ones to the West Harmon Zone.
For those who want to sit down and enjoy the race, the minimum ticket prices rocket to $1500 for the West Harmon Grandstand. But now, the race committee have notified that the Grandstand will not be constructed due to ‘poor sighting’ issues. Those who have bought the tickets already will be moved to another spot (the T-Mobile Zone at Sphere) offering a much better view without any extra cost, even though the tickets to that area cost $2000.
The costliest ticket deal at the Las Vegas GP is worth an eye-watering $5,000,000. It is the biggest cost of an F1 ticket in the history of the sport. It includes a five-night stay at the Nobu Sky Villa in Caesars Palace as well as 12 paddock tickets. The buyers will also be offered several customized VIP gifts.
The Las Vegas GP will, surprisingly enough, have a golf match to kickstart the events of the weekend. The game will be between some professional golfers and the F1 drivers and it will be aired live on Netflix. This will be the first live sports experience to be telecast on the streaming giant that is already the origin of the hit docu-series ‘Drive to Survive’ that focuses on the paddock lives in Formula 1.
