Las Vegas Grand Prix Map
**It's VERY IMPORTANT to note that the Las Vegas GP is split into ZONES by SPONSOR/ LANDMARK. If you have a grandstand ticket in a certain zone YOU CAN NOT go to another zone**
T-Mobile Grandstands
Zone: T-Mobile (Sphere)
Big Screen: Yes, located along the Sphere (with special graphics on the Sphere)
Covered: No
Numbered Seating: Yes
There are two sets of grandstands in the T-Mobile Zone, facing each other along the Sphere and the Turns 5 - 7 around the Sphere. There are a small set of inner track grandstands and much larger grandstands on the outside of the track. In the pictures above, friend of FanAmp, Rob was sitting in SG1 on the outside of Turn 5. In general, no matter where you sit in these grandstands, you will have a great view of the Sphere section and it is notably cool to see the Sphere graphics in front of you the entire time!
These grandstands and the general admission section are all in one zone, so it is likely going to be the busiest zone on track. While there were many food, beverage and restroom areas - expect lines. Additionally, on race day there was an issue with non-alcoholic beverages that caused all bars to run out, which I'm sure will be resolved by next year.
This zone also features the 'headliner' performances for the track. This year that included One Republic and Ludacris. The stage area "filled up very quickly for Ludacris and it felt like a music festival instead of a race".
This is one of the easier sections to access - you should use the Hughes Center pick-up drop-off zone and follow the signs. It will take about 15 minutes to access from the drop off zone.
T-Mobile General Admission
Zone: T-Mobile (Sphere)
Big Screen: Yes, located along the Sphere (with special graphics on the Sphere)
Covered: No
Numbered Seating: No
This general admission section is very comparable to a number of the grandstand options in the area - as long as you show up relatively early (although this is a 4pm arrival rather than in the wee-hours of the morning for other tracks). The General Admission area within the T-Mobile zone is directly on the inside of the track at Turn 6 - across from a number of grandstands. These are the most expensive and limited General Admission tickets because you will have access to the 'headline' concerts.
To reiterate: These grandstands and the general admission section are all in one zone, so it is likely going to be the busiest zone on track. While there were many food, beverage and restroom areas - expect lines. Additionally, on race day there was an issue with non-alcoholic beverages that caused all bars to run out, which I'm sure will be resolved by next year.
This zone also features the 'headliner' performances for the track. This year that included One Republic and Ludacris. The stage area "filled up very quickly for Ludacris and it felt like a music festival instead of a race".
This is one of the easier sections to access - you should use the Hughes Center pick-up drop-off zone and follow the signs. It will take about 15 minutes to access from the drop off zone.
West Harmon Grandstand (Lewis Hamilton Grandstand)
Zone: West Harmon
Big Screen: Yes
Covered: No
Numbered Seating: Yes
The West Harmon Grandstand (HG-2) or the Lewis Hamilton Grandstand as dubbed by race organizers this year, is located at the very end of the lap at the Las Vegas Grand Prix. It stretches along the straight into Turn 17 and along the pit lane entrance. Most seats will have a perfect and close view of the straight, but if you are in lower rows in ANY section, you will have a great view of the pit entrance. Those sections on the 'left' side of the grandstand (105 and 106) will have a view of the cars going into the high speed Turn 17.
If you want to see some action - this is a pretty good bet! During the race, this is where your author sat and we had a very good view of a few side by side races (namely from Lewis and the McLarens)!
This grandstand is the only in the West Harmon Zone, so the food and beverage options were very easy to get as opposed to some other sections. There were two large areas for refreshments and restrooms, so there were very few lines. This section also featured some activities for children and a silent disco!
This is one of the easier sections to access - you should use the Tuscany Hotel pick-up drop-off zone and follow the signs. It took us about 15 minutes from drop off to entering the section!
Main Grandstand
Zone: East Harmon
Big Screen: Yes
Covered: No
Numbered Seating: Yes
The Main Grandstand (HG-1) is located along the Paddock and Garages stretching all the way from Turns 1 and 2 to Turn 17. As with every other Main Grandstand throughout the F1 season, you will have a great view of the start/ finish straight, the state-of-the-art paddock, garages, and pit stops.
The sections on the 'right' (approx. PG 1101 - 1104) will have a view of Turn 1 and 2.
The sections on the 'left' (approx. PG 1110 - 1116) will have a view of Turn 17 and the end of the lap.
This grandstand is in the VERY busy East Harmon Zone, but in this zone that was not an issue. There were many food and beverage options, and luckily most of the other foot traffic in this section is from people in various Hospitality options. While it may be congested moving around, the food and beverage options were easy to get and restrooms were clean.
This zone also has a very large stage for driver interviews, team principal interviews, and performances. East Harmon Zone is the only place that fans will have access to these interviews. Performances also occur in the T-Mobile Zone.
This section is 'easy' to access, but it still is a very long walk. You will be dropped off at the Virgin Hotel, walk through the hotel, and then walk for about 15 minutes to the zone. Plan for at least 30 minutes - especially on race day.
Main Grandstand Skybox
The Skybox is a premium option located on top of the Main Grandstand along the Paddock, pit lane, startews of all of this plus Turn 17 and Turn 1 due to its height vantage point.
Turn 3 Club (Suites)
Zone: East Harmon
Big Screen: Many small screens scattered throughout the suites
Covered: Yes
Numbered Seating: No, not necessary.
The Turn 3 Club replaced the grandstands along Turns 2 and 3 of the Las Vegas Grand Prix track. This section is where the standard Turn 3 Club offering AND Champions Club are housed. I, however, was with a brand, Dermalogica, in the semi-private suites on the 3rd floor of the hospitality.
There are two buildings of Turn 3 Club - one on the small straight between Turn 2 and 3, and the other directly on the Apex of Turn 3. I can only speak to the suite view on the 3rd floor of the Apex Turn 3 Club building. Even on the 3rd floor, you were basically directly on top of the cars as they raced through Turn 3.
While you're viewing a limited part of the track, having access to heat, very comfortable indoor seating, unlimited gourmet food options, and an open bar was a HUGE plus - especially with the cold temperatures of Las Vegas. To watch the cars on track, there were 3 rows of first-come, first-served seats that were very comfortable.
The one downside of Turn 3 Hospitality is that you have to enter through the East Harmon Zone, which as I noted above is a very long walk. It took us 40 minutes of walking from drop-off to entering Turn 3. With Turn 3 club you will, also, have access to the driver, team principal, and DJ appearances at the East Harmon Stage!
Heineken GA+
Zone: South Koval
Big Screen: Yes
Covered: No
Numbered Seating: No, basically GA bleachers
The Heineken GA+ seating was a new addition to the Las Vegas Grand Prix this year - think of it as General Admission grandstands - located along the straight between Turns 4 and 5 (in the right GA+ grandstand you could also see the exit of Turn 4). Essentially if you choose this special type of General Admission, you will have a nice view of the cars speeding up down the straight into the T-Mobile Zone. This part of the track changed dramatically from the 2023 Las Vegas Grand Prix, however, the FanAmp team had this exact view last year from Ellis Island (no longer has a grandstand) and enjoyed it!
If you're concerned about getting seats near each other in the grandstands, friend of FanAmp, Matt Maynard, sat in this section and confirmed that seating was not an issue and other fans were more than happy to shift around to accommodate a group. He reported that the only downside was that they were wary of getting up to explore the zone because they didn't want to lose their seats/ go alone.
The South Koval Zone itself is truly just reserved for these 2 GA+ grandstands with a couple of premium offerings sharing the space but not the amenities. There were a number of beverage stations but only one food station at the end of the zone - but this wasn't much of an issue as it wasn't a busy zone. The one downside is that there were little to no activations in this section except for the Heineken 'Tower' that you could climb up briefly for a nice view of Las Vegas and a trophy display.
This section is easy to access- probably THE easiest - by using the Tuscany pick up off zone and walking just 10 minutes straight into your zone off of Flamingo Road.
Venetian Viewing Deck
Zone: Venetian Zone
Big Screen: Yes and individual small screens every few seats
Covered: Partial
Numbered Seating: Yes - some people were given seats, some had a standing area behind the rows (covered)
Before we start - the Venetian Viewing Deck was gifted to Venetian customers and rewards members. You could only buy these seats through the casino itself and your concierge as it was a premium offering. This may change, though! These notes are courtesy of friend of FanAmp, Hannah Souza.
The Venetian Viewing Deck was located along the back straight in front of "Turn 13" on the Strip. You have a great view of the cars driving down the Strip - which is a view that only people in premium ticketed areas had (I.e. Bellagio Fountain Club and Club Paris). The offering itself was slightly elevated above the catch fencing with 3 rows of seats and two levels of a more 'GA' area with tables to eat, drink, and watch the race. A very unique part of these seats was that there was a TV with the F1TV feed at every other seat and VERY loud speakers.
As this was a premium offering, there were free food, beverages, alcoholic drinks and amenities including blankets and ear plugs. The food varied and featured restaurants from both the Venetian and Palazzo Hotels. It was also very easy to leave the seating and go inside the casino for a meal or to go up to your room in between sessions as it was completely attached to the casino. Naturally, this also makes the seats very easy to access from the Venetian Hotel.
We hope this guide is helpful!
