The highly anticipated Las Vegas Grand Prix Formula 1 race is finally within reach for budget-conscious fans this year. Ticket prices have dropped significantly, making it more accessible than ever to experience the thrill of Formula 1 in person. According to Emily Prazer, the president and CEO of Las Vegas Grand Prix, Inc., the goal is to create a world-class event for every fan, and this commitment is stronger than ever in 2025.
Ticket Options and Pricing
The most notable change in ticket pricing is the significant drop in cost for single-day passes. In 2024, the cheapest one-day general admission ticket was priced at $99. This year, that price has been slashed to just $50, making it more affordable for fans to attend. However, there are a few caveats to consider when opting for the $50 ticket.
The $50 ticket only grants access to Friday’s practice session, offering a glimpse of the action before the main events on Saturday and Sunday. If you wish to attend qualifying on Saturday, the single-day ticket price is $100. For the pinnacle of the weekend, the Grand Prix race on Sunday, the ticket price jumps to $300. Opting for a three-day package including all events will save you $50, totaling $400 for the entire weekend.
Ticket Zones and Viewing Experience
It’s important to note that the $50 tickets are designated for the Flamingo Zone by Caesars Rewards general admission area. This section is primarily standing room only and is situated along a long straightaway of the street circuit. While these tickets offer a budget-friendly way to experience the Formula 1 atmosphere, some fans have voiced concerns about the limited views from this location. Several Reddit threads have highlighted complaints from customers who were unable to see any of the race action from the Flamingo Zone.
However, there are alternative ticket packages available for fans seeking a better viewing experience. Three-day packages, such as the Heineken GA+ and T-Mobile General Admission, provide seating options in bleachers or standing-room-only areas. These packages offer improved views compared to the Flamingo Zone and are priced affordably, starting at $725. For fans willing to splurge, there are grandstand packages available, including the exclusive Lewis Hamilton Grandstand starting at $875. For those with a lavish budget, the Gordon Ramsay at F1 Garage package offers a premium experience for $25,000.
In conclusion, while $50 tickets offer an entry point to the 2025 F1 Las Vegas GP, the viewing experience may be lacking, and it only includes access to the practice session. For fans planning to attend all three days of the event, there are several package options available at reduced prices compared to previous years. Whether you’re a dedicated fan or a newcomer to Formula 1, there’s a ticket option to suit your preferences and budget for this year’s Las Vegas Grand Prix.
