Mark Wahlberg Talks Vegas Move as He Hosts Epic F1 Party

Mark Wahlberg is going full throttle for the big F1 Las Vegas Grand Prix!

“Extra’s” Mark Wright spoke with Wahlberg, who is hosting an epic McLaren F1 party with Vista Las Vegas at Drai's Beachclub Nightclub inside The Cromwell.

Wahlberg became an F1 fan thanks to his daughter. He said, “My 13-year-old had a crazy obsession with Lando Norris. She got her picture taken with him. She was happy, and more importantly, he was the nicest guy in the world.”

Mark also opened up about his family’s big move from L.A. to Vegas. He noted, “The plan was always to come here, build a movie studio, create 10,000 jobs. We already made two films here.”

Wahlberg’s upcoming Apple TV+ film “Family Plan,” which focuses on a suburban dad with a secret past, was shot in Las Vegas. He shared, “Shot all over the Strip. We were able to do things on the Strip that have never been done before.”

The Strip will be full of parties this weekend to celebrate F1.
