T-Pain, MGK and Zedd to headline Sphere Stage at this year's Las Vegas Grand Prix
We're just four months away from the return of the Formula 1 racing to Las Vegas and now we know the musical acts who will perform on the Sphere Stage in the popular turn-crazy T-Mobile Zone. T-Pain, mgk (otherwise known as Machine Gun Kelly) and Zedd are scheduled to headline the three-day, back-of-the-track festival (Nov 20–22) with supporting performances expected from Sofi Tukker, Jess Glynne, Cimafunk, Balu Brigada and Cassian. The performances will take place in the shadow of the Sphere's giant glowing orb and are an included perk for T-Mobile Zone at Sphere ticket holders, who also have access to race-day activations and views of some of the most challenging turns of the race. (Those tickets currently start at over $800 for a three-day pass—though last year, single-day tickets were eventually added with a starting price around $150.) Calling Las Vegas an entertainment hub, Emily Prazer, president and CEO of Las Vegas Grand Prix, said of the acts, 'It's only fitting to bring together some of the music industry's best to create an unmatched concert experience for race weekend.' Here's everything you need to know about the race and performances. When is the Formula 1 Heineken Las Vegas Grand Prix? Now in its third year, the Las Vegas Grand Prix takes place November 20 to 22, 2025 with practice racing on Thursday, qualifying on Friday and the Grand Prix itself on Saturday. Who is headlining? And when? Thursday, November 20: Zedd Friday, November 21: mgk Saturday, November 22: T-Pain How do I see the shows?

Food and beverages will be available for purchase. The T-Mobile Zone is located on the backside of the circuit near Turn 5G and also covers turns 7 through 9, the most challenging and technical portion of the race. Where do I purchase tickets?

The ultimate guide to Las Vegas sports and sports venues

Allegiant Stadium The Las Vegas Raiders play all home games at Allegiant Stadium – Photo courtesy of Allegiant Stadium With a capacity of 65,000, Allegiant Stadium's futuristic design and shiny black exterior have earned it the nickname The Death Star. The venue is best known as the home field for the Raiders, but you'll also catch the UNLV Rebels scoring touchdowns during football season. Special events at Allegiant Stadium include the Pac-12 college championship and the Las Vegas Bowl. T-Mobile Arena The Vegas Golden Knights call T-Mobile Arena home – Photo courtesy of Vegas Golden Knights Advertisement Thomas & Mack Center The Thomas & Mack Center is a magnet for basketball fans – Photo courtesy of Kevin Lytle / The Coloradoan / USA TODAY NETWORK If you spy a sea of cowboy hats moseying down the Strip, they might be in town for the National Finals Rodeo. Every December, the 10-day event brings more than 160,000 spectators to the Thomas & Mack Center at UNLV. Tickets to this venue also are sought after by basketball fans who fill the stands to cheer for NBA exhibition games, the NBA Summer League, and Runnin' Rebels college basketball. Grand Prix Plaza Grand Prix Plaza is where the Las Vegas Grand Prix begins and ends – Photo courtesy of Las Vegas Grand Prix Grand Prix Plaza is the start and finish line for the Formula 1 Heineken Las Vegas Grand Prix. Still, the engines roar past iconic landmarks like Caesars Palace and the Bellagio fountains as drivers turn 17 corners and complete 50 thrilling laps around the 3.8-mile track. The Las Vegas F1 GP is a citywide event with live music, driver appearances, and special packages from resorts, restaurants, and casinos. Las Vegas Ballpark Enjoy America's favorite pastime at Las Vegas Ballpark – Photo courtesy of Stephen R. Sylvanie / Imagn Images Located a few miles away in downtown Summerlin, Las Vegas Ballpark is home to the minor league baseball team, the Las Vegas Aviators. The 10,000-person stadium is a family favorite, with tickets and concessions sold for a fraction of what they go for at major Las Vegas sports events. If that weren't enough, baseball fans have another reason to celebrate: The Athletics are building a new ballpark and plan to relocate the franchise to Las Vegas in 2028. Michelob Ultra Arena UFC and boxing are big draws at the Michelob Ultra Arena when the Aces aren't playing – Photo courtesy of Joe Camporeale / Imagn Images Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino is home to Michelob Ultra Arena, lovingly called 'The House' by fans of one of the WNBA's original franchises, the Las Vegas Aces. When the Aces aren't pressing the court, other ticketed events at the 12,000-seat arena have included professional lacrosse, Esports, and combat sports like boxing and UFC.
