Official F1 Ticket Packages Now On Sale For Las Vegas And Miami Races

The Inaugural Las Vegas Grand Prix was the highest profile new sporting event in the world last year, and the biggest thing to hit Vegas since the city turned its focus to spectator sports. With 315,000 fans over 3-days (according to local news KTNV), it easily outdrew the first Sin City Superbowl, widely considered the biggest event in American sports, which garnered an official attendance of just 61,629, the lowest for any non-pandemic game (though the single day Las Vegas event record is still held by the Grateful Dead at Sam Boyd stadium in 1995 with around 125,000 fans).
Formula One’s popularity in the United States has exploded in recent years, driven in part by the hit Netflix reality show Drive to Survive. According to Sports Business Journal, fully a third of F1 fans are new to the sport in the past four years, and the 2023 season drew an average of 1.1 television viewers per race in this country, a number which has doubled since 2018. However, according to Sports Illustrated, overall U.S. viewership was down from 2022, though interest in the domestic races remains very strong. Last year’s Miami Grand Prix drew the largest live television audience for F1 in American history, with a record-breaking 2.6 million viewers.
The November Las Vegas race was so big and so glitzy it feels like just yesterday, but tickets for the 2024 edition (November 21-23, 2024) already went on sale—just this week. Yet for diehard Formula One fans in this country, the next big thing is the Crypto.com Miami Grand Prix, coming in just over a month (May 3-5, 2024).
Fortunately, attending either race is easier than ever, thanks to F1 Experiences, which was just named the official hospitality sales partner for the Formula 1 Heineken Silver Las Vegas Grand Prix, the longwinded official name of the race. F1 Experiences in turn is a division of Quint Events, which for many years has been the U.S. leader in providing luxury travel access to high-profile spectator sports, and has official provider contracts with the NBA, NHL and many large events.
I wrote a book called Fans on the nature and impact of sports fandom, and have extensively covered attending marquee and “Bucket List” sporting events for my journalistic outlets, including the Kentucky Derby (the 150th edition is coming fast on April 4, 2024) and Superbowl, and I personally experienced Quint’s expertise at both of these. The company doesn’t sell just tickets like most brokers, they do complete hospitality packages that include tickets plus things like VIP lounges, private in-venue food, drink and entertainment, lodging (often hard to impossible to get on your own), private transfers to and from the events, usually with express entrances, and special access to extra

The Ultimate Miami Grand Prix Weekend At The Fontainebleau Miami Beach
The 2023 Miami Grand Prix proved to be the pivotal race in Max Verstappen’s dominant and historic performance en route to securing his third World Drivers’ Championship title. The Dutch driver started from P9, while his Red Bull teammate Sergio Perez started from pole. Verstappen sliced his way through the pack, as if in a different formula category. With nine laps remaining, he emerged from the pits and not only closed a 1.8-second gap to Perez but passed him and put another five seconds into the Mexican driver before taking the checkered flag. What we didn’t realize at the time was that Verstappen would proceed to win every remaining race of the 2023 F1 season, save for a glitch in the Red Bull matrix that was Singapore.
