Formula 1 Las Vegas Grand Prix 2026

The Formula 1 Las Vegas Grand Prix 2026 takes place from 19 to 21 November 2026 on the Las Vegas Strip Circuit in Nevada. It is round 21 of the 2026 season and one of the few night races on the calendar. This guide is for travellers planning a trip to Las Vegas for the race and for agencies selling race packages to the USA.

About the Las Vegas Grand Prix

The Las Vegas Grand Prix returned to the Formula 1 calendar in 2023 on a street circuit that runs past many of the city's best-known sights, including a long straight along the Strip itself. Racing under lights in late November gives the event a very different feel from daytime Grands Prix, and the city builds a full weekend of entertainment around it. Full schedule details are on the official Formula 1 Las Vegas Grand Prix page.

For travellers, the appeal is the combination of top-level motorsport with everything else Las Vegas offers: shows, dining, shopping and day trips into the desert. Many fans treat the race as the centre of a longer holiday in the American West.

The Las Vegas Grand Prix 2026 dates and venue

Formula 1 lists the Las Vegas Grand Prix 2026 dates as 19 to 21 November 2026. Practice and qualifying sessions take place in the first part of the weekend, and the race is held on the final day, Saturday 21 November, in the evening local time. Because sessions run late, travellers should plan for late nights and quiet mornings.

The venue is the Las Vegas Strip Circuit, a temporary street track laid out on public roads around the Strip. Grandstands and hospitality areas sit at different points along the lap, so check which entrance applies to your ticket before you travel.

How to get to Las Vegas for the Las Vegas Grand Prix

The main gateway is Harry Reid International Airport (LAS), which is close to the Strip and well connected to major US hubs. Travellers from the Gulf, North Africa, Europe and Asia usually connect through a large US or European hub, so allow time for the connection and arrival formalities.

From the airport, taxis, ride-hailing services and shuttles reach Strip hotels quickly, although road closures for the circuit can change normal routes during race week. Travellers should check the official entry requirements for the United States well before booking.

Where to stay

Hotels on and around the Strip are closest to the action, and many sit right beside the circuit. Downtown Las Vegas and areas off the Strip can offer more choice when central rooms are full. Demand is very high for race week, so book early and confirm minimum-stay rules.

Agencies should note that some roads near the track close in the evenings, so a hotel within walking distance of your grandstand can make the weekend easier.

Planning a group trip to the Las Vegas Grand Prix

A group tour to the Las Vegas Grand Prix works best when the package covers flights, transfers, hotel rooms and race tickets bought through official channels. Many groups add a day trip to natural sights in Nevada or Arizona before or after the race weekend.

Because the race runs at night, build free time into the morning schedule and keep group meeting points simple. Share clear notes on security rules, bag policies and which gate to use for each ticket type.
