The Golden Nugget Named Official Host Hotel of The 2026 BFGoodrich Tires Mint 400
San Diego, CA - December 23rd, 2025 – Unlimited Off-Road Racing and The Mint 400 are proud to announce that the Golden Nugget Las Vegas will serve as the Official Host Hotel for the 2026 BFGoodrich Tires Mint 400, returning to Las Vegas March 4–8, 2026. The Mint 400 will once again anchor race week in downtown Las Vegas as Stop Two of the American Off-Road Racing Championship, bringing the momentum of the national series into one of the most iconic motorsports settings in the world.
Located in the heart of downtown Las Vegas on Fremont Street, the Golden Nugget will serve as the central hub for Mint 400 race week operations, welcoming racers, teams, sponsors, media, and fans from across the country. As the Official Host Hotel, the property will host key Mint 400 activities throughout the week, including race registration, drivers meetings, sponsor and media coordination, and official event operations, solidifying its role as headquarters for Round Two of the championship.
How to book your stay at the best possible rate: Mint 400 racers, teams, sponsors, media, and fans are strongly encouraged to book their accommodations directly through the Golden Nugget Las Vegas under the official Mint 400 group block to receive the lowest available race-week rates and to ensure their stay is properly associated with the event.
To book, guests should call the Golden Nugget reservations team directly at 844-468-4438 and request placement in The Mint 400 group block.
Guests who have already booked their stay with the Golden Nugget independently must still call the hotel directly and ask that their reservation be moved into The Mint 400 group block. Reservations not listed under the Mint 400 group may be subject to higher rates and may not count toward the official event room block. This simple step ensures the best possible rate and supports the long-term success of the Mint 400.
First opened in 1946, the Golden Nugget is one of Las Vegas’ most storied and recognizable resorts, blending classic Vegas character with modern luxury. The property features a wide range of accommodations, from newly renovated rooms to premium suites, designed to comfortably host race teams, families, and fans during one of the most important weeks on the American Off-Road Racing Championship calendar. Guests can enjoy world-class amenities including multiple restaurants, lounges, casino gaming, spa and pool facilities, and direct access to the Fremont Street Experience.
Race teams and support crews competing at the Mint 400 will appreciate the Golden Nugget’s ability to accommodate the unique demands of off-road racing, including space for race personnel and support vehicles and a proven track record of hosting large-scale motorsports events. Its centralized downtown location allows teams to remain closely connected to race operations while enjoying easy access to transportation routes leading to the events all week.
“Positioning the Mint 400 as Stop Two of the American Off-Road Racing Championship raises the stakes for everyone involved,” said Mint 400 CEO Matt Martelli. “Having the Golden Nugget as our Host Hotel gives us a true headquarters for championship race week. It’s where our racers, partners, and fans come together, and it’s a critical part of delivering a professional, cohesive national series.”
The 2026 BFGoodrich Tires Mint 400 will once again bring tens of thousands of off-road fans to Las Vegas for a full week of racing, festival events, and industry gatherings. As Round Two of the American Off-Road Racing Championship, the Mint 400 represents a pivotal moment in the season, and the Golden Nugget will once again stand at the center of it all.
