MGM RESORTS GOES FULL THROTTLE FOR FORMULA 1 HEINEKEN SILVER LAS VEGAS GRAND PRIX

“People have been to big races, people have enjoyed Las Vegas – but the way the two will come together in November will make for an unprecedented weekend,” said Andrew Lanzino, MGM Resorts’ Vice President of Citywide Events. “With so many MGM Resorts destinations within a short walk of the track, we have an unmatched opportunity to create a neighborhood experience where there is something for everyone and the party never ends.”

In addition to crafting some of race weekend’s most exciting and exclusive viewing destinations, including the Bellagio Fountain Club on the resort’s iconic fountains, and offering experiences in the luxurious MGM Rewards Suite and F1® Hospitality Garage at the Pit Building, MGM Resorts is unveiling the first peek at its citywide programming:
