Las Vegas 2026 · Road closures
Road closures and crossing the Strip
The track uses Las Vegas Blvd, Harmon Ave, Koval Ln and Sands Ave. They close to cars on each race day, but the 2026 times are unconfirmed (see the table), and buses detour for the whole week.1,2
Quick answer
Unconfirmed for 2026: the organizer's page lists 1pm closures Thu–Sat, but its dates don't match 2026 weekdays and Clark County hasn't posted 2026 details yet. Check the organizer's F1 Las Vegas app or Clark County before you go.1,3

Unconfirmed: these are the times on the organizer's page, but its dates don't match 2026 weekdays (*it prints "Friday 11/21" and "Saturday 11/22"; we show the next morning) and Clark County hasn't posted 2026 details yet, so treat every time here as unconfirmed and check the organizer's F1 Las Vegas app or Clark County before you go.1,3
On foot
Crossing the Strip during race week
- The F1 Las Vegas app shows walking routes from your hotel based on real-time road openings and closures.1
- The monorail is elevated and does not cross the track at street level, so it is the easiest way between zones and the two sides of the Strip.4
- Inside the T-Mobile Zone at Sphere, a pedestrian bridge with elevators on both sides crosses the track for ticket holders.1
- Public crossing points for people without tickets have not been published for 2026. We will update this page when the county or organizer posts them.
Get alerts
- Clark County sends race traffic alerts: text F1LV to 31996. Its F1 page still shows 2025 details at the time of checking.3
- The organizer's circuit-preparation map and timeline is at transportation.f1lasvegasgp.com.3
