Entertainment On and Off Track at the 2025 United States Grand Prix
Circuit of The Americas is located close to Austin – a city famed for its live music scene, BBQ food and thriving nightlife. You can be certain of an action packed weekend at the 2025 United States Grand Prix, both on track and off.
Formula 1 has enjoyed a surge in popularity in the United States in recent years. A TV deal with ESPN made the sport more accessible to fans, while Netflix’s Drive to Survive captured the imagination of a more mainstream audience.
In recent years, COTA has played host to musical megastars such as Taylor Swift, Bruno Mars, Ed Sheeran and Britney Spears, with the nightly concerts becoming a highlight of the Grand Prix weekend. In 2024, Eminem and Sting were the headline acts. Headliners for 2025 have not yet been announced.
On track, COTA will host F1’s Sprint format for the third year in a row, meaning there’ll be an extra portion of racing on Saturday afternoon. The three days of Formula 1 action is supported by races from junior categories (details for 2025 are yet to be announced). You can read more about the trackside experience at COTA here.
Three US races on the calendar in 2025
For the third year in a row, Formula 1 will visit the United States three times in 2025. In 2022, the United States Grand Prix was complemented on the calendar by a second stateside race: the Miami Grand Prix. In 2023, the highly anticipated Las Vegas Grand Prix was run for the first time on a new street circuit which incorporates the famous Las Vegas Strip.
In 2024, the Las Vegas Grand Prix suffered “disappointing” ticket sales, failing to build on the 315,000 spectators that attended in its inaugural year. In March 2025, F1 announced a new range of ticket options for the Las Vegas Grand Prix, with lower prices to make the event more accessible for a wider audience.
Although attendances at Circuit of The Americas dropped in 2023 – albeit by around 2,500 per day – the fall in attendance is not attributed to the Miami and Las Vegas Grands Prix joining the calendar. An official attendance figure for the 2024 United States Grand Prix has not been released but it is believed that the figure dropped slightly once again.
Only Watkins Glen has hosted the United States Grand Prix on more occasions that COTA. In early 2022, the Austin track secured a longer term future on the F1 calendar, extending its contract through to 2026. It contract is up for renewal once more after next year’s race – but the race’s future is not believed to be under threat.
