Bright lights, huge hotels and the iconic Las Vegas Strip. Together with our Global Luxury Luggage Partner, Globe-Trotter, we explore the mesmerising city of Las Vegas and its surroundings ahead of the Las Vegas Grand Prix.
The newest race on the Formula One calendar takes place amidst the glitz and unique charm of the Las Vegas Strip, where casinos, massive hotels, and an overwhelming array of bars and restaurants all coalesce into a dazzling hotchpotch of high spirits and neon lights. Racing in Vegas is a unique experience, heightened by the fact that Formula One cars reach up to 210mph along the iconic Strip – the fastest speeds ever seen on a street circuit.
Beyond the track, no trip to Vegas is complete without exploring the futuristic new Sphere and edgy Downtown area, complete with hipster hangouts and vibrant art displays. And when you're ready to clear your head, venture out to Lake Mead or the Grand Canyon after the race wraps up.
The best of Vegas
For Mediterranean cuisine, Estiatorio Milos offers unforgettable dishes, while Evel Pie serves up pizza slices in a dive bar adorned with retro Evel Knievel memorabilia. For a surreal experience, Omega Mart – a sprawling, immersive art installation disguised as a supermarket – leads visitors through secret passages into mind-bending, otherworldly environments.
For a refined stay away from the main drag, the JW Marriott Las Vegas Resort provides a calm and sophisticated atmosphere, while the Waldorf Astoria offers a stylish haven for high rollers. For those who want the classic Vegas experience, the Bellagio on the Strip has all the modern conveniences, including pools. Alternatively, the relaxed Hyatt Place provides a comfortable stay in Vegas.
Desert destinations
A bit further afield, Palm Springs is famous for its Reuben sandwiches at Sherman's Deli and its mix of modern architecture and spectacular desert sunrises. The area also attracts crowds to the annual Coachella music festival.
Keep an eye out for The Line, a new resort set to bring excitement to Palm Springs upon its opening. In Utah, the awe-inspiring landscapes of Zion and Bryce Canyon National Parks beckon, while Death Valley – one of the driest and lowest points in the US – offers some of the country's most dramatic scenery. Scottsdale's W Hotel is a refreshing oasis in the desert, perfect for a stylish stay.
The joy of the journey
Take a classic cross-country journey along Route 66 and discover the charm of New England in autumn. Fall is an ideal time to visit, with bronze leaves carpeting the trails and unforgettable walks in the Catskills or on Cape Cod.
For accommodation, The Newbury in Boston exudes stately grandeur, while The Ritz-Carlton offers a mix of class and edge. The Sheraton provides a great selection of facilities, including a pool, while Liberty is housed in a former prison, though these days guests can come and go freely. XV Beacon is ideally located in Beacon Hill, adding a touch of luxury to your New England experience.
Our partnership with Globe-Trotter celebrates a shared commitment to craftsmanship, innovation, and heritage, bringing together the timeless style of Globe-Trotter's handcrafted luggage and the cutting-edge design and performance of the Aston Martin Aramco Formula One Team.
