Formula 1 has secured the Las Vegas Grand Prix on its calendar until at least 2037, signing a 10-year extension with Clark County and the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority (LVCVA).

The deal marks a significant commitment from F1 management, which acts as both the commercial rightsholder and event promoter for the race. Las Vegas first joined the calendar in 2023 on an initial three-year deal, which was subsequently extended for two further editions around the Strip before this longer-term agreement was concluded.

“We are thrilled that Formula 1 will continue racing in Las Vegas for many years to come,” said F1 president and CEO Stefano Domenicali. “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.”

Domenicali added that Las Vegas had always been viewed as a cornerstone of F1’s US presence, and that the extension reinforces the sport’s long-term commitment to the American market.

Steve Hill, President and CEO of the LVCVA, described the renewal as “a major moment for both Las Vegas and the Grand Prix,” saying the race had become “a signature global event” in just three years, placing the city “at the center of culture, competition, and entertainment during race week.”

The Las Vegas Grand Prix’s early days were not without difficulty. The 2023 inaugural edition was marked by circuit teething problems and friction with local residents over the disruption caused by the street race. However, the event improved considerably in subsequent years and has since established itself as one of F1’s most high-profile fixtures on the calendar.

The extension underlines F1’s broader strategy to deepen its footprint in the United States, where it also holds races in Miami and Austin.
