The Backstreet Boys will headline the official F1 Afterparty at Sphere on Saturday, November 21, after the Las Vegas Grand Prix. The current official schedule lists the show from 11:30 PM to 1 AM.
The important ticket detail
This is not a normal standalone Sphere concert ticket. The Las Vegas Grand Prix says a valid 2026 race ticket is required to purchase F1 Afterparty access. Current options include race-plus-afterparty packages and add-ons for eligible race ticketholders.
What it costs right now
The official F1 page currently lists the afterparty add-on from $116 for eligible ticketholders. Three-day T-Mobile General Admission plus the afterparty starts at $925, and the T-Mobile Grandstand package plus afterparty starts at $1,560. Those are current official starting prices, not a Vegas Sidekick markup.
🌵 Kris's take“This is exactly the kind of event Vegas is unusually good at: the race is the main event, and then instead of the night ending, thousands of people move into Sphere for Backstreet Boys. I would think of the afterparty as part of the F1 experience, not as a separate concert you happen to squeeze in afterward.”— Kris Kidd, founder of Vegas Sidekick · Las Vegas local since 2005 · in show ticketing since 2006
