LAS VEGAS, Nev. (FOX5) – An F1 arcade experience is coming to the Las Vegas Strip next year.
After a similar venue was successfully launched in Boston, Formula 1 announced on Monday that the F1 Arcade will be arriving in the valley next year.
The 21,000-square-foot venue will be located in the Forum Shops and offer views of the Strip. Spanning two floors filled with immersive racing simulators, officials note that the venue will be the biggest F1 Arcade to date.
Fans can get behind the wheel and race some of F1′s most iconic tracks from around the world.
“F1 Arcade’s expansion comes as the sport continues to gain impressive viewership and attendance figures across the US,” officials noted in a release. “Last year’s inaugural Formula 1 Heineken Silver Las Vegas Grand Prix 2023 attracted over 315,000 fans and this year the Formula 1 Crypto.com Miami Grand Prix 2024 was sold out with record-breaking attendance figures of 275,000 (up from 270,000 last year).”
After the venue’s launch in Boston, officials also say that other venues will be opening soon in Washington D.C. later this year. Overall, over 30 locations are expected to open globally in the next five years.
