Ticket sales have been unsatisfactory due to concerns regarding race week.
Although there were a number of tickets available on the Ticketmaster website for Saturday night’s Formula One race as of early afternoon, secondary-ticket sales for the Las Vegas Grand Prix were skyrocketing.
“We will be sоld оut by the time оf the event,” Race Renee Wilm, CEO, guaranteed Fоrmulа оnе Grоup’s eаrnings cаll оn Nоvеmbеr 3. Unless there is а drаmаtic surge at the last minute, the race will not fulfill that forecast.
The first LVGP sold tickets for the following year quickly, despite a number of issues both on and off the track that dampened the joy of racegoers, Las Vegas natives, and drivers alike. The event is set for November 21-23, 2024, and fans can start putting down deposits as early as this Saturday, with a $250 minimum.
When tickets for Saturday’s event were first made available for purchase about a year ago, the lowest cost ticket was $500. Tickets began at $200 and were eventually made available to a limited number of Nevada residents.
Despite a number of obstacles, the secondary market surge in ticket sales for Saturday night’s event indicates a high level of interest.
According to Gametime’s early Saturday afternoon update, the cheapest ticket was $1,387. This is the same price as the three-day pass that was offered on Wednesday. The most costly three-day ticket on Wednesday was $4,613, while the most expensive one-day ticket on Saturday was $10,635. According to a later Gametime report, the lowest-priced ticket jumped once again, hitting $1,613.
TickPick has also seen an increase. It was $771 on Monday; on Friday, it had climbed to $980; and by Saturday afternoon, it had risen to $1,128.
Both BetMGM and Caesars Entertainment have forecasted record-breaking handle for a motorsports race, showing that betting on this race has been strong from the start. If Saturday’s botched attempts to determine whether those expectations were met are any indication, the sports-betting companies are in for a big weekend at Red Rock Resort in Las Vegas.
