Where to Watch F1® in Las Vegas During Race Weekend 2026
Formula 1® returns to Las Vegas this November, bringing one of the biggest race weekends of the year back to the Strip.
The FORMULA 1 HEINEKEN LAS VEGAS GRAND PRIX 2026 takes place across November 19–21, with Practice on Thursday, Qualifying on Friday and the main event under the Las Vegas lights on Saturday.
Whether you have tickets to the circuit or you’re looking for where to watch F1® in Las Vegas, F1® Arcade Las Vegas is bringing the action to life all weekend.
Located at The Forum Shops at Caesars Palace, just off the Las Vegas Strip, expect huge screens, immersive F1® racing simulators, food, cocktails and a packed weekend of Formula 1® action.
From Practice to Race Day and a post-race Sunday brunch, here’s everything you need to know.
Las Vegas Grand Prix 2026: What You Need to Know
Formula 1® first raced in Las Vegas in 1981 with the Caesars Palace Grand Prix™. The modern Las Vegas Grand Prix™ arrived in 2023 with a completely different proposition: a spectacular street circuit running through the heart of the city.
The Las Vegas Strip Circuit takes drivers past some of the city’s most recognizable landmarks, including the Sphere, before sending them at incredible speeds along Las Vegas Boulevard.
And unlike most races on the F1® calendar, Las Vegas comes alive after dark. The race takes place at night, with the cars racing beneath the lights of the Strip.
For 2026, the weekend runs from Thursday, November 19 through Saturday, November 21, with the celebrations continuing at F1® Arcade on Sunday, November 22.
Where to Watch the Las Vegas Grand Prix™
Don’t have a grandstand ticket? You can still experience the atmosphere of F1® race weekend in Las Vegas.
At F1® Arcade Las Vegas, you can watch the action unfold across huge screens surrounded by fellow Formula 1® fans — and then get behind the wheel yourself.
Unlike a traditional Las Vegas sports bar or F1® viewing party, the racing doesn’t stop when you leave the screen. Our racing simulators let you take on the Las Vegas circuit, set your fastest lap and compete against your friends throughout the weekend.
Add food, cocktails and special race-week programming, and you’ve got much more than somewhere to watch the race.
