We are thankful for so much this year during these trying times, including our amazing guests and employees! We are excited to remind everyone about the Glittering Lights show opening on Saturday, November 14, 2020. Las Vegas Motor Speedway will be hosting its annual Glittering Lights holiday drive-thru show with millions of twinkling lights along a 2.5-mile course. It’s a holiday experience that everyone in the family can enjoy and do so safely within their own vehicles. There are 4 distinct ticket purchasing options, including Season Pass, Fast Pass, AnyDay Tickets, and Weekday Value Tickets.

We hope that you participate in this fantastic event and join in with the holiday cheer; we know this year has looked starkly different from those of the past, but we are confident that things will vastly improve over time. We encourage everyone to stay safe and grab a cup of your favorite holiday beverages while enjoying the festive lights and holiday music at the Glittering Lights show.

NHRA Meet and Greet Tahiti Village Resort Las Vegas

Two of the fastest straight line vehicles on Planet Earth and their adrenaline-fueled drivers will be at Tahiti Village Resort & Spa, Las Vegas’ favorite tropical resort paradise, for a meet and greet on Oct. 30. NHRA drivers Terry McMillen and Chad Green will chat with fans, sign autographs and pose for photos from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.

Guests can enter a free raffle for tickets to the Dodge NHRA Nationals, take home racing swag, and enjoy refreshing Meeowee Wowee Shave Ice.

Terry has competed on the NHRA circuit since 2007. He drives an 8,000-horsepower Top Fuel Dragster capable of reaching 330 miles per hour. He won the prestigious U.S. Nationals for the first time in 2018, and earned his first career win, in Las Vegas, in 2017.

Chad is a NHRA Pro Mod driver. His 3200-horsepower vehicle can reach speeds of more than 250 miles per hour. Chad made his NHRA debut in 2018, qualifying for all 12 national events and finishing fifth in the championship points to cap an impressive rookie campaign.

The event is free and open to the public. It will be held at the Tahiti Village front entrance beneath the porte cochere. Tahiti Village is located at 7200 Las Vegas Blvd. South and Warm Springs Road.

Family friendly Tahiti Village in Las Vegas is proud to be the hotel partner of Terry McMillen and Chad Green. We wish them the best of luck at the NHRA Las Vegas event. We encourage Tahiti Village guests and Las Vegas residents to stop by for the meet and greet. This will be Chad’s first visit to the property, and we have been hosting meet and greets with Terry on his twice yearly visits to Las Vegas since 2013.

He’s even been known to let fans sit in his Amalie Oil dragster, the Xtermigator!

When the NHRA Nationals pays its biannual visit to Las Vegas, you can count on Terry McMillen doing two things: 1) Sending his 8,000-horsepower dragster down the track at more than 300 miles per hour and 2) staying here at Tahiti Village when he’s through.

As the official resort of Terry and his crew, we’ll be hosting a meet and greet with the top fuel drag racer from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Wednesday, March 29, ahead of his appearance at the Denso Spark Plugs NHRA Nationals at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.

Terry will be chatting with fans, signing autographs and posing for photos next to his Amalie Oil dragster from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. beneath the porte cochere. You may even have the opportunity to sit in the cockpit! Terry’s team will unload the dragster at approximately 10 a.m. Refreshments and popcorn will be provided.

If you can’t get enough Terry in the morning, he’ll be making an encore appearance that night during our weekly owners’ night event from 6-8 p.m. at 17˚ South Booze & Bites, our onsite bar and bistro.

You say you can’t get enough Terry? You say one three-hour appearance once a year doesn’t cut it? You say you want even more?

You asked for it, you got it!

We invite you to meet Terry McMillen beneath the porte cochere in front of the main lobby building from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. this Wednesday, Oct. 26, as the NHRA drag racer makes his second of two yearly appearances at Tahiti Village.

You can talk to and pose for pictures with Terry, marvel at (and maybe sit inside of) his awesome 8,000-horsepower Amalie Oil dragster, and enjoy complimentary pink popcorn in recognition of breast cancer awareness month.

You’ll also have a chance to win great prizes, including race tickets to the NHRA Toyota Nationals this weekend at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.

Please enjoy our special Pink Nitro drink at 17° South Booze & Bites. Fifty percent of the proceeds from each Pink Nitro sale will benefit breast cancer support group She4Life, Terry’s favorite charity. So if you’re on property this Wednesday, please join us for a good time and a great cause!

We are proud to host Terry and his crew during the NHRA Toyota Nationals at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway every spring and fall. Good luck, Terry!
