F1: A double-edged sword. While it benefits certain areas economically, it burdens locals, off-strip businesses, and Chinatown with increased traffic and congestion. Chinatown is already bustling 365 days a year, so the race only makes it harder to access our vibrant neighborhood

As F1 (Formula 1) races into Las Vegas, the city’s transportation and traffic patterns will shift. While some areas, including Chinatown, may experience more noticeable changes due to their proximity to the Strip, Chinatown remains a must-visit destination offering a unique cultural experience.

Discover a Hidden Gem Beyond the Strip:

Chinatown’s bustling streets offer a refreshing alternative to the tourist-heavy Strip, with incredible dining, shopping, and cultural experiences. Explore on foot, enjoy outdoor dining, and discover authentic flavors and hidden gems.

Parking Solutions and Public Transportation Access:

While parking is challenging in Chinatown anyway, parking availability around the Strip’s tourist zones- forget it.  Use the Las Vegas Monorail to navigate the event and its surroundings efficiently.

Ride-Sharing Services:

With an increased demand for ride-sharing services, Chinatown provides a strategic spot to access ride-share options with potentially less surge pricing than the more crowded areas closer to the race.

Support Local Businesses During the Event:

Chinatown businesses are ready to welcome an extra influx of locals and visitors throughout the Formula 1 weekend. By venturing just a little beyond the Strip, you’re not only avoiding the densest traffic zones but also supporting a diverse community of locally owned businesses.

Plan Ahead for a Smooth Visit:

Check RTC Updates: Stay informed about any transit changes via the Regional Transportation Commission of Southern Nevada’s real-time updates.
Be Informed: Follow local news for event-related traffic advisories and consider walking or taking pedestrian-friendly routes where possible.

Embrace Chinatown: A Cultural Escape

Chinatown offers a cultural escape that remains accessible, diverse, and rich with opportunities to explore. With a little planning, you can enjoy the best of both worlds — the thrills of Formula 1 and the warm community spirit of Las Vegas’ Chinatown.
