Hollywood stars and racing royalty close out F1 weekend at high-priced affair
What: Amber Lounge
Where: The former La Zona Rosa
When: November 1-2, 2014
The lowdown: Last weekend, the Amber Lounge returned to Austin to celebrate the U.S. Grand Prix in true Formula 1 fashion — as only it can. Direct from Monaco, and touted as the "original F1 lifestyle event," the Amber Lounge was a mecca for A-listers and Formula 1 drivers alike throughout the weekend. VIP guests hobnobbed with Hollywood stars — like Keanu Reeves and Matt LeBlanc — during the two-night affair that came at a steep price: tickets ranged from $380 for an individual pass to $34,850 for the best table in the house.
Who: Matt LeBlanc, Keanu Reeves, Marcus Ericsson, Esteban Gutierez, Fernando Alonso, Alexander Rossi, Jenson Button, Armine Shamiryan, Michael Johnson, Lolo Jones, DJ Lora and John Martin of Swedish House Mafia.
