High-octane Fun at Formula 1

The 2023 Formula 1 United States Grand Prix will take place at Circuit of the Americas in Austin October 20 – 22. Archer Hotel Austin is a 40-minute drive from the raceway, and we thought it best to offer our guests a quick glimpse into this high-octane event.

A global audience of drivers, musicians and fans turns its collective wheels to Austin each autumn for one of the most electrifying events in town. Locals, families and friends of all ages attend a range of events over three days.

Last year’s event included performances by Green Day and Ed Sheeran, and the main event known as “Race Day” on Sunday culminated the weekend.

Attendees can expect busy days filled with large crowds, loud noises, elevation changes and different vantage points. Dress is typically casual, and since the weather in Austin this time of year can be unpredictable, an evening sweater or jacket is a good idea. Archer recommends packing an additional rain poncho and extra sunscreen.

Purchase Formula 1 tickets in advance at the Circuit of the Americas website. Kids ages 2 and under are free, and the three-day general-admission ticket has gained a reputation as one of the best general-admission experiences in motorsports.

Guests of Archer Hotel Austin can easily get to Circuit of the Americas by taking Austin’s local ride-booking service, Fasten. Those who are planning to drive themselves will want to look into parking passes well in advance.

Why not make a weekend of it? Enjoy the excitement of the 2019 Formula 1 races, then head to Domain NORTHSIDE and the nearby Rock Rose for shopping, eating and entertainment.

Rest easy in our luxe rooms and suites before enjoying a complimentary in-room Nespresso experience. You’ll be refreshed after a full, memorable weekend.
