F1 Aracde, the premium Formula 1 bar and sim racing venue announced Tuesday that it will open a third U.S. site in Las Vegas next year.
Following the unveiling of its first U.S. venue in Boston last month, the Las Vegas site, based in The Forum Shops at Caesars Palace, builds on F1 Arcade’s expansion in the United States.
Covering 21,000 square feet across two floors overlooking the iconic Las Vegas Strip, the venue will be the largest on F1 Aracde’s slate when it opens in 2025.
The Vegas venue will feature F1 Aracde’s typical offering of an F1-themed bar, coupled with countless sim rigs to live the F1 driver experience and screens to watch every Grand Prix.
Las Vegas will follow Boston and Washington DC (set to open in Autumn, 2024) as part of F1 Arcade’s 30-plus U.S. site expansion.
“We are incredibly excited to bring the F1 Arcade experience to the vibrant Las Vegas Strip following the successful launch of our first U.S. location in Boston Seaport last month,” said Jon Gardner, US President of F1 Arcade.
“The adrenaline pumping experience of fans racing head-to-head on iconic circuits against their friends and family while overlooking the Las Vegas Strip will be truly exceptional.”
F1 Arcade’s Las Vegas expansion comes off the back of the inaugural running of the F1 Las Vegas GP in 2023 and F1 and Las Vegas GP Chief Commerical Officer Emily Prazer said, “As Formula 1 continues to build on the success of last year’s inaugural Grand Prix, it’s exciting to see F1’s presence in Las Vegas continue to grow with the opening of a flagship F1 Arcade.
“The latest venue announcement symbolizes the increasing appetite for F1 in Las Vegas and will become a go to attraction for visitors outside of race weekend.”
F1 Arcade is the self-described “first official premium F1 experiential hospitality brand,” and launched its “flagship” site in London in December 2022.
