ABOUT LAS VEGAS

Las Vegas blends high-speed racing with bright lights and round-the-clock energy like no other city. As the home of Las Vegas Motor Speedway, it becomes a focal point for NASCAR fans twice each season, highlighted by the Pennzoil 400 and other headline events. With modern facilities and a strong focus on fan experience, the Speedway has earned its place as one of the standout venues on the NASCAR calendar.

More than just racing

While NASCAR may be the main draw, Las Vegas offers far more beyond the track. The iconic Las Vegas Strip is packed with luxury resorts, casinos, and entertainment spots that keep the atmosphere buzzing long into the night. Visitors can wander through the Fremont Street Experience, catch a Cirque du Soleil production, or dine at renowned restaurants led by celebrity chefs – all part of what makes Las Vegas a global entertainment hotspot.

Outdoor escapes

Step away from the city lights, and you’ll quickly discover a different side of Las Vegas. Just minutes from the Strip, Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area offers hiking trails, climbing routes, and scenic drives through striking desert scenery. Nearby Lake Mead and the Hoover Dam add options for boating, fishing, and sightseeing, creating a dramatic contrast to the city’s fast pace.

Culture & entertainment

Often called the Entertainment Capital of the World, Las Vegas delivers an endless lineup of live shows – from major concert residencies to stand-up comedy and theatre performances. Sports fans can also take in an NHL game with the Vegas Golden Knights at T-Mobile Arena or watch the Las Vegas Raiders at Allegiant Stadium if schedules align with race weekend.

Where to stay

Accommodation choices are vast. Many fans opt for hotels along the Strip to stay close to nightlife and entertainment, while others prefer North Las Vegas locations near the Speedway for easier race-day access. Camping and RV options at the track itself remain a favourite, placing fans right at the heart of the race-weekend atmosphere.

Why Las Vegas is a must-visit

Las Vegas delivers far more than just a NASCAR race. It combines the intensity of top-level motorsport with world-class shows, dining, nightlife, and outdoor adventures just beyond the city limits. Whether you’re chasing on-track excitement or off-track experiences, a race weekend in Las Vegas offers something truly unforgettable.
