For all of my F1 Las Vegas fans out there, you can now register to keep up to date with ticket sales for the epic 2023 race. You can either sign-up for text messaging or donate $7.77 to be put on the “Priority Interest List.” I signed up for both just in case since I stupidly missed out on the 3-Day General Admission to F1 Austin this year. So, I wanted to make sure that I didn’t miss any information about ticket sales for F1 Las Vegas.
Where Can I Register?
You can follow this link here. You can register for both the text messaging and the Priority Interest List on the same website.
Where Does the Donation Go?
Not going to lie, when I saw that I had to pay $7.77 just to be put on the Priority Interest List, I definitely made a face. But when I read a little further, it states that the money will be donated to help local hunger relief so that made me feel like it was worth it to spend the money. Once you click the link, you will be taken to Ticketmaster and your voucher will be deposited into your Ticketmaster account.

Is it Worth the $7.77?
The website is so vague about what you really get that I don’t know if it’s worth spending the money or not. It uses phrases like “a chance to be among the first to purchase tickets” or “securing a spot on the Las Vegas Grand Prix Priority Interest List does not guarantee that a fan will ultimately be able to purchase tickets.” So, why the heck would you waste your money on this you ask? Well, the website at least states that your donation “…secures you a spot on a Priority Interest List for access to ticket sales.” So, in the end, it’s up to you if you want to spend the money or not. I personally did just because I know I’ve spent more on a smoothie than this.
If You Want To Save a Little Bit of Money
If you have a group of friends that are planning on going to the race, you can always designate one person to donate the $7.77 and split it among you. That person will have to be in charge of making sure they are ready to purchase tickets the day of though.
How Many Tickets Can You Buy?
The website’s FAQs state that you are allowed to buy up to 8 tickets.

How Can I Book Hotels for F1 Las Vegas 2023?
Most hotels won’t let you book more than a year in advance but I’ve recently found this travel hack where you are able to book certain hotels right now. I wrote a whole blog post about it here and even booked a couple of rooms at the Palazzo (although it seems that they might have run out of rooms already through that particular website). So, the hotel choices might be limited. The other problem is that they haven’t officially announced what weekend it will be on yet but rumor has it that it’s slated for November 16-18.
