The Las Vegas Grand Prix is one of the world’s busiest race weeks, and the Strip Circuit turns normal traffic patterns on their head. If you’re flying into LAS, book your car rental early and plan each day around peak closures and crowd surges near the Strip.
Smart driving during race week
Expect heavier volumes on I‑15, Paradise, Tropicana, and roads feeding the resort corridor. When possible, approach from the east via Paradise/Swenson rather than the Strip itself. Keep your itinerary compact: choose a base hotel, park once, and use short hops or walking to reach viewing zones.
Parking strategy that actually works
- Park on the “quiet” side. Target resort garages east of the Strip and properties north of Sands to avoid gridlock directly on Las Vegas Blvd. Verify in/out privileges and overnight rates with your hotel.
- Arrive early, leave late. Enter before late‑afternoon surges, then relax post‑race while traffic dissipates.
- Mind height limits. If you’re in a large SUV or minivan, check clearance signs before committing to a garage.
