The inaugural Las Vegas GP has created a huge shortfall of tickets, mainly due to F1’s increasing popularity in the US. The $500 grandstand tickets have all been sold out, five months before the lights go green in the sin city. However, this has opened up opportunities for other companies to draw in fans who are ready to splurge money.
Resorts around the Las Vegas Strip are offering extravagant deals at mind-boggling rates. Recently it was revealed that ‘Resorts World’ will offer F1 enthusiasts an ultra-affluent bundle dubbed the “888 Experience.” This will include almost all the things any fan could possibly need to get the most out of a Grand Prix weekend.
This expensive bundle will include air travel, a private butler service, casino credits, and most importantly, paddock access for the race weekend. However, all these amenities won’t be coming cheap (as expected). Fans can only enjoy this particular experience by Resorts World if they are ready to pay $888,000.
$888,000 F1 experience comes with butler service and casino credit
Resorts World has several packages designed to help people who are willing to spend money. Some of them are relatively cheap costing only a few thousand dollars, but the prices keep going up with the addition of exclusive experiences. However, nothing comes close to their “888 Experience” package.
The buyers of this package will receive 6 paddock passes and 10 grandstand tickets. It also comes with a 3-night in Crockfords’ lavish Palace Suites, along with an entourage suite.
Fans will also receive $20,000 worth of resort credit and another $20,000 casino chips. They will get VIP transportation to the paddock on race day and will be chauffeured to and from the airport. This will be followed by an exclusive invite to the Zouk Nightclub for the afterparty after the race ends.
$1,000,000 package for Las Vegas GP turns heads around
Fans all over the world are very intrigued about the extraordinary prices of tickets ahead of the Las Vegas GP. Many fans avoid going to races because of the expensive tickets, but Las Vegas being one of the most anticipated races this season, hasn’t suffered the same fate.
The resorts in Las Vegas have gone above and beyond with their luxurious packages. They start at rates of just about a few thousand dollars but some of these packages have gone up to $1,000,000.
The Wynn Las Vegas has curated a uber-extravagant 3-day experience for a group of 6. The million-dollar package will give fans access to the paddock along with the chance to go on a grid walk and pitlane walk ahead of the race. Fans will receive a tour from a former F1 driver. On top of that, they can also avail a chance to be driven around the race track by a current F1 driver for a hot lap.
Fans also get to dine extravagantly with, caviar and champagne made ready on arrival in addition to a VIP pickup and drop from the airport. Buyers will also receive accommodation at a 5,829-square-foot Three-Bedroom Duplex suite.
In terms of glamour and extravagance, the Las Vegas GP has already lived up to its hype. However, fans are eagerly waiting to see if the racing action can live up to expectations.
