Where is the Las Vegas Grand Prix?

The world-famous Las Vegas Strip is a street circuit in Nevada spread out over 3.8 miles around the city, down the Las Vegas Boulevard as well as Harmon Avenue, Koval Lane and Sands Avenue.

Flights to Las Vegas for the F1 Grand Prix

Harry Reid International Airport (LAS) is located just 3.6 miles from The Strip, making it one of the most easily accessible races for both international and domestic racing fans. The airport has two terminals (Terminal 1 & Terminal 3) which are not physically connected, so it’s important to know in advance which terminal you need to be at for your flight home.

Unsurprisingly, flights can get pretty pricey close to race weekend so if you’re keen to save money, consider flying into Los Angeles (LAX) and then hire a car to get to Las Vegas. It takes approximately 4.5 hours to drive from Los Angeles to Las Vegas.

Flights from the UK

From the UK, there are direct flights to Harry Reid International Airport from London’s Gatwick and Heathrow airports with airlines Virgin Atlantic, British Airways and American. The flight takes approximately 10 – 11 hours.

Flights from within USA

There are plenty of domestic flights to Las Vegas on Grand Prix weekend. Sites such as Skyscanner can help find the best option for you, depending on where you are in the USA. As always, it’s recommended to book flights early before prices rocket and choices become more limited.

How to get to the Las Vegas F1 circuit from the airport?

Taxi/Ride Sharing

Taxis are available from both terminals and a list of all affiliated taxi companies can be found on the airport website. A journey to the Strip should cost you no more than $20, but please note there is a $2.40 additional charge for journeys which start or end at the airport, plus a $3 fee for the use of a credit or debit card.

Lyft and Uber both operate at the airport. Pick up point for Terminal 1 is located on Level 2 of the parking garage. For Terminal 3, the pickup point is on the Valet Level of the parking garage.

Please be aware that Lyft and Uber are both in high demand in Las Vegas, particularly during racing weekend. Arriving travellers may experience longer-than-expected wait times and departing passengers should allow plenty of time to get back to the airport.

Shuttles

Bell Trans provide shuttle transfers for $15, typically stopping at three to five hotels downtown. The shuttle leaves from Terminal 1 outside door 8 and Terminal 3 outside door 51. Booking in advance is essential.

Some hotels offer shuttle services to and from the airport. Check with your hotel to see if they offer this service and whether there are any fees or if they are included with your booking.

Buses

If you’re keen to keep expenditure to a minimum, taking the bus from the airport is a great option. Terminal 1 is served by Route 108 – Paradise, Route 109 – Maryland Parkway and the Westcliff Airport Express (WAX) route, while the WAX and Centennial Express (CX) routes operate from Terminal 3. Schedules, fares and routes can be found on the Regional Transportation System of Southern Nevada’s website.

By car

We wouldn’t recommend hiring a car if you’re just planning on attending the Grand Prix – roads are closed for much of the racing weekend. If you are planning on visiting further afield during your stay, there are plenty of rental car companies located at the airport, including Europcar, Enterprise and Hertz.

Getting to the Las Vegas Strip Circuit on foot

The majority of Las Vegas hotels are clustered around the Strip, so most fans will be able to walk to and from the circuit. It’s worth bearing in mind that what may look like a five- or ten-minute walk on the map may end up taking much longer due to road closures and diversions. Download the official F1 Las Vegas app, available for Apple and Android. This will provide real-time updates and help you find the best route to and from the zone indicated on your tickets.

Monorail

If pavement-pounding isn’t your thing, the monorail is a fast and convenient way to get around town, taking you from one end of the Strip to the other in under 15 minutes. You can use this handy monorail map to help plan your journey. Tickets can be bought in advance on the official monorail website, with a single ticket costing $5.50.

Please note that queues for the monorail can get very long, especially when leaving the circuit. Our advice is to avoid using the monorail after the race and head back to your hotel on foot (trust us – you’ll get there quicker!).
