The Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority spent over $4 million of taxpayer money on Las Vegas Grand Prix tickets worth thousands of dollars each, which were handed out to various executives, authority staff and celebrities.
The attendees noted on the list were given between one and five tickets for access to the LVCVA’s Skybox suite over the four days of the grand prix last November, according to agency data obtained by the Las Vegas Review-Journal via a public records request. The suite sat above grandstands that overlooked the start-finish line of the race, which was located directly across the track from the Formula One pit building. The suite was able to host up to 500 attendees per night.
Some individuals also received $15,000 tickets to the Paddock spectator area; others received $2,500 grandstand tickets.
