Formula 1 has agreed a 10-year extension for the Las Vegas Grand Prix, keeping the race on the Las Vegas Strip through 2037 after its debut in 2023. F1 says three straight sellouts helped deliver $3.2 billion in cumulative economic impact for Southern Nevada.
The Las Vegas Strip won’t go quiet on racing for a long time.
Formula 1 has officially announced a ten-year extension for the Las Vegas Grand Prix. ensuring the high-performance race circuit will be staged in “Sin City” through 2037. The new deal keeps F1’s showpiece spectacle fixed to the city’s neon lights after the event was first introduced in 2023 and quickly became one of the more popular races on the F1 calendar.
The race is one of three F1 events held in the United States, alongside the Miami Grand Prix and the United States Grand Prix in Austin, Texas. Las Vegas now sits on the calendar as more than a flashy novelty: it’s a planned destination that F1 says is already paying off for the wider community.
“ We are thrilled that Formula 1 will continue racing in Las Vegas for many years to come. ” Formula One president Stefano Domenicali said in a statement. “Since its debut in 2023. the event has been extraordinary. rapidly establishing itself as a premier destination for great racing. world-class entertainment. global business leaders. A-list celebrities and influencers. It has delivered a strong and lasting impact on the local economy and community. We always believed that Las Vegas would become a cornerstone of our presence in the United States. and this extension. together with the success of recent years. reinforces our long-term commitment to this important market.”.
Domenicali also thanked the Las Vegas Grand Prix. Clark County. and the [Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority] for what he called continued support. passion. and vision. “I would like to thank Las Vegas Grand Prix. Clark County. and the [Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority] for their continued support. passion. and vision. ” he added. “The future is incredibly exciting, and we look forward to taking this event to even greater heights.”.
That commitment is backed with figures. F1 says the three editions of the race—delivered thanks to three consecutive sellouts—“delivered $3.2 billion in cumulative economic impact for Southern Nevada.”
On track, the Las Vegas Grand Prix has also built its own storyline. Cars sprinting down the 3.8mi/6.2km Las Vegas Strip Circuit. where drivers race past some of the most iconic landmarks in the famous Sin City road. has already produced a familiar pattern at the front: Max Verstappen has won two of the three races at the circuit. including last year’s running. The inaugural race went to Verstappen in 2023. the next victory came in 2025. and between those wins was a race win for Mercedes’ George Russell.
Beyond the main grand prix, the circuit has become a stage for other big moments too. Last season, the all-female F1 Academy series held its first race at the circuit, with Doriane Pin claiming the title.
Emily Prazer, President and CEO of Las Vegas Grand Prix, Inc., framed the extension as more than scheduling. “Securing a 10-year extension through 2037 is a defining moment for the Las Vegas Grand Prix and a reflection of the strength of our local partnerships. ” Prazer said. “I’m incredibly proud of the team we have built in Las Vegas and of our shared commitment to supporting the Southern Nevada community. We’re deeply grateful to the Clark County Commission. LVCVA. our resort partners and the broader Las Vegas community for their continued collaboration and support in bringing this event to life.”.
For now, attention turns to the next race. This year’s Las Vegas Grand Prix is set to be run on November 21, scheduled as the third-to-last race on the calendar, with the Qatar Grand Prix and Abu Dhabi Grand Prix to follow.

2037??? Wow I guess we’re getting loud cars forever now.
So they’re saying it’s worth 3.2 billion, but like who actually sees that? My cousin works in hotels and it’s usually packed but also crazy expensive now.
I thought the race was canceled or something after 2023? Like I swear I heard they couldn’t get permits for the strip or whatever. Maybe they just keep pushing it further down the road until 2037 and call it “economic impact.”
Honestly Las Vegas is already a mess with traffic and then you add F1 for 10 more years? Great for the businesses I guess, but I’m not trying to deal with closures every year. Also $3.2 billion sounds made up half the time, like where does that even go, casinos or the county? Either way people will act surprised every March.
