The local casino is thrilled to announce TURN 4 at Ellis Island Casino with viewing and hotel packages for the upcoming race.

Positioned at Turn 4, Ellis Island Hotel & Casino is a prime location for staying, viewing and enjoying the festivities taking place Nov. 16, 17 and 18, 2023, in Las Vegas.

"As an official venue, we are excited to announce TURN 4 at Ellis Island Casino. We're looking forward to hosting unique viewing parties and offering hotel packages to locals and visitors, and most importantly, provide the hospitality and fun we've been known for over the last 55 years."

Ellis Island Hotel & Casino is not only an official venue of the Las Vegas Strip Circuit™, but the award-winning destination is also the closest hotel-casino to the Las Vegas Grand Prix Paddock Building on Koval Lane and is positioned overlooking Turn 4 of the track.

"One of the benefits of building a street circuit is that we can leverage existing venues along the track and partner to create fun, unique viewing options that live up to the quality and standards that our fans expect from an F1 race," said Emily Prazer, Chief Commercial Officer for the Formula 1 Las Vegas Grand Prix. "We are excited to have Ellis Island as an 'Official Venue of the Las Vegas Strip Circuit' and look forward to having them put their personal touch on the Las Vegas Grand Prix experience."
