10 Free Pop-Ups to Do During Formula 1 Las Vegas
Formula 1 is in Las Vegas this week and Vegas is serving out the Freebies as only Vegas can do! Combing these websites can get a little overwhelming to filter through which events are free and which are paid events, so I figured I’d make this post to help out my fellow budget travel girlies that will be in town. You can meet drivers for free, get into clubs for free, and pick up some free souvenirs or even a free haircut as you follow my guide for the top 10 free pop-ups to do during Formula 1 Las Vegas.
FYI : This page includes affiliate links, which means I might get a commission from your purchase at no extra cost to you. This is what helps me work on the free content and freebies I produce for you guys, so thank you for that! Know that, I ONLY include what I use myself and stand behind 100% (learn more)
Here’s an idea of what the race track is going to look like, and here is a map with stars to mark where I think you should definitely check out. I put them in order with #1 being the free event I’m most excited for!
We’ve all heard the controversy surrounding the grand stands in the Bellagio Fountain, so let’s start here.
- #10 - Bellagio
First of all, contrary to rumors, the Bellagio Fountains are in fact still alive and well! It’s true you can no longer view them from the street side since the grandstands are now in the front of the Fountains, but you can view them from the Bellagio side of the Fountains.
Inside Bellagio, you will find a Ferrari Pop Up Boutique from Nov 13-20. They also have “Shoey Bar” where you can visit and watch people drink out of Formula 1 Driver shoe styled cups. Yes, they are actual MGM logo-ed shoes. You can check this bar out Nov 16-18.
- #9 - Four Seasons
Artist Paul Oz will be showcasing his art here at the Four Seasons until the end of the Forumla 1 weekend. If you go on Saturday or Sunday, you may see Paul himself painting live in the lobby.
- #8 - The Wynn, The Linq Promenade, & Resorts World
These three are tied for 8th place because they are all offering similar free Formula 1 pop ups. They are all open now through the weekend.
The Wynn Las Vegas will be hosting The McLaren Experience Center. They have a number of hypercars and supercars to check out for you car lovers. They will even have a one-of-a-kind McLaren Senna.
The Linq Promenade will be hosting different Formula 1 swag pop up shops as well as the V12 Motorsports Team Store through Nov 19th.
Resorts World will be hosting Pop Ups during the Formula 1 Heineken Silver Las Vegas Grand Prix like Racing Miami, Jack Daniel’s, Michelob Ultra, Samsung, Volcan de mi Tierra Tequila, ZYN, F1 Merch and more. They’ll also be showing the race on all of their TVs.
- #7 - Fashon Show Mall
Fashion Show Mall Las Vegas will be hosting a number of pop up raced themed photo opportunities, including the main one in the food court. This will be up all weekend.
- #6 - The Venetian
The Venetian will be home to the F1 Las Vegas Hub. This official store will offer exclusive merch with some of the top brands. It sounds like it is going to be amazing to walk through. There will be a ton of photo opportunities as well as interactive experiences. You can check it out now until Nov 22.
- #5 - The Venetian Grand Canal Shoppes
I am really excited for this one. Similar to the LOVE sign, they will be hosting an AMORE sign! It will be located on Level 2 of The Venetian Grand Canal Shoppes between Flight Club Social Darts and Grimaldi’s Coal Brick Oven Pizzeria. This will be posted till the end of the year.
- #4 - Caesars Forum Shops
The Caesars Forum Shops will be hosting a number of free Formula 1 pop up events with special guests! For example Psycho Bunny will host a meet and greet event from 1-5pm Nov 18th with Will Buxton of Netflix’s series Formula 1: Drive to Survive (there 2-3pm)!
- #3 - New York New York
As you all know, I love the free events at New York New York and in front of the T-Mobile Arena! For Formula 1 in Las Vegas they will be having a number of drivers and cars under the Brooklyn Bridge and in front of the stadium! There are a number of events from now until the 18th!
- #2 - Aria
The Aria is going all out for Formula 1 this year! It’s coming in at number two but it could easily be number one!
First off, they are giving free mullet haircuts like Valtteri Bottas’ style cut! I would love to sit and watch that!
While you walk around you can check out The Aria lobby filled with cars like the 2024 Alfa Romeo Tonale, the Giulia and Stelvio, Alfa Romeo F1 Team Stake Car Show, and even gear!
Another Formula 1 Las Vegas event that sounds fun is to test your reaction timing by taking the Alfa Romeo Batak Board Challenge!
These events will be running Nov 15-18.
- #1 - Cosmopolitan
Cosmopolitan sounds like you may end up spending the whole day there and that’s why it comes in at #1! They have a F1 Helmet Display with custom helmets decorated by local and regional artists!
The Bumbys, a New York based performing duo, will be roaming around the Cosmopolitan providing a personalized assessment on an old school typewriter. This just sounds like something you can only see in Vegas!
Now that you’ve done all the Free Pop Ups for Formula 1 Las Vegas, you can sit back and relax with a Verbana from Chandelier Bar. You do have to pay for it, but you deserve it after seeing all that stuff for free! Plus, if you buy the secret drink through your phone, it will transform your drink into a personal AR race-infused story (Available Nov 16-19)!
If you want to go and have a watch experience for free, Clark County is offering a number of opportunities to go watch the actual Formula 1 Las Vegas race. There is one inside the Clark County Government Center Amphitheater at 500 S Grand Central Parkway and one at Water Street Plaza at 240 S Water Street. You may have to reserve your free ticket online so keep up to date here if you are interested in watching the race for Free!
Otherwise, it sounds like most places on The Strip will be hosting “Watch Parties” that will require tickets to see.
REMEMBER GIRLS… MEET PROMOTERS AND GET INTO CLUBS FOR FREE!
Trust me when I say even though it is Formula 1, you will still get to see all the famous DJs for FREE! Promoters will be all over The Strip! If you want to get to get into clubs for free during Formula 1 Las Vegas check out this post.
Here’s a list of my opinion, the best shows you can see during Formula 1 Weekend!
- Weds Nov 15th – (Night) Marshmello at XS
- Thurs Nov 16th – (Night) Steve Aoki at Omnia
- Fri Nov 17th – (Day) Loud Luxury at Marquee Dayclub / (Night) Zedd at Zouk
- Sat Nov 18th – It’s a tie for both between (Day) Ludacris at AYU Dayclub or Martin Garrix at Marquee Dayclub/ between (Night) Calvin Harris, Diplo, & Dom Dolla at XS or Tiesto at Zouk
I hope you enjoy your weekend in Vegas and you win big with all these freebies!
