If you're planning a trip to Las Vegas for the Formula 1 Grand Prix, expect wildly different price tags depending on where you stay. Track‑view suites and hotel‑and‑ticket bundles can push three‑night totals into the thousands, while off‑Strip rooms and last‑minute deals can bring nightly rates down into the low hundreds.
The 2025 race runs November 20–22. Single‑day tickets range from standing‑room general admission to premium grandstand seats — a Saturday general‑admission pass is listed at $590 while premium grandstand seats start at about $1,375, according to Formula 1 Las Vegas Grand Prix.
How expensive did it get?
For the inaugural event the market spiked: analytics firm CoStar estimates the race week generated nearly $220 million in hotel room revenue, and average daily rates climbed into the $600s on the Strip with luxury properties eclipsing $950 a night. That surge showed how much high‑end rooms and hospitality packages can lift prices even when occupancy patterns are mixed.
Where rates sit now
A snapshot of advertised rates taken in the run‑up to the 2024 weekend found average three‑night totals of about $1,315 at MGM Resorts properties and roughly $987 at Caesars properties. That Review‑Journal survey illustrates that mainstream Strip hotels can translate to mid‑hundreds per night while suites and package deals still push totals into the multi‑thousand‑dollar range, as reported by the Las Vegas Review‑Journal.
Big hotels and packages
Operators are selling curated experiences: Wynn’s "Grand Fan" package, for example, lists pricing starting around $5,500 for a three‑night stay that includes two grandstand tickets. The Cosmopolitan and other MGM properties are marketing F1 room reservations that require full prepayment and add nightly resort fees (Cosmo lists a $55 resort fee), while some smaller venues — like Treasure Island — are advertising lower F1 rates and member discounts for fans who prioritize price over track views, as mentioned by Wynn Las Vegas, The Cosmopolitan and Treasure Island.
How to dodge sticker shock
If you want to keep costs down, consider general‑admission tickets, off‑Strip hotels, or packages that bundle race access with lodging. Industry analysts have also flagged softer demand at points this year, which means there may be last‑minute discounts or smaller hotels still offering deals — a trend highlighted in recent industry coverage and analyst notes, as per Casino.com.
Race week is a mix of spectacle and sticker shock: organizers are encouraging ticket donations to local groups and continuing to add hospitality options, so whether you pay five figures for a suite or snag a budget room, you’ll be paying for more than just a bed — you’ll be buying into the whole Las Vegas show.
