Las Vegas is gearing up for an extravagant New Year’s Eve celebration with an impressive fireworks display, featuring participation from ten casinos across the city. The event, titled “America’s Party,” will take place on December 31, 2023, and marks a significant first: the Palms, a non-Strip casino, will join nine iconic Strip properties in this spectacular show.
The fireworks will be launched from the rooftops of the following casinos: MGM Grand, Aria, Planet Hollywood, Caesars Palace, Treasure Island, Venetian, Resorts World, Fontainebleau, and The Strat. This year’s show promises to be unique with a duration of eight minutes, featuring a synchronized drone show, which is another first for Las Vegas celebrations. The display will be accompanied by a soundtrack of popular hits from artists such as The Eagles, Def Leppard, The Scorpions, Blake Shelton, and Foreigner, broadcast on local radio stations.
To accommodate the expected influx of visitors, which is estimated to reach 340,000 over the weekend, the Strip will close to traffic and open to pedestrians. This allows attendees to fully enjoy the festivities along the renowned Boulevard. In addition to the main fireworks display, a separate show will be held at the Plaza in downtown Las Vegas.
Innovative Celebrations Include the Sphere Countdown
In a groundbreaking addition to the New Year’s festivities, the countdown will be projected on the Exosphere, the outer shell of the Sphere venue. This innovative feature will showcase images of previous celebrations from around the globe leading up to midnight. Attendees can expect a stunning visual experience that enhances the overall atmosphere of the night.
Meanwhile, Circus Circus is making headlines of its own by announcing the opening of a new bingo room in February 2024. This 225-seat venue, located on the second floor, will be the only live bingo space available on the Strip, marking the first such establishment since the closure of the last bingo room at the Riviera in 2012.
As the countdown to the New Year begins, Las Vegas is poised to deliver a memorable celebration filled with excitement and innovation that reflects its vibrant culture. For those interested in other local events and offerings, further information can be found on LasVegasAdvisor.com.
