Regrettably I won't be in Las Vegas this year for the Fourth of July (I'll be in rainy Tampa visiting family). That's a shame because it looks like there's some great options for seeing Las Vegas Fourth of July fireworks--even better than my previous Las Vegas fireworks displays round-up.
My top picks are:
1. Fourth of July Fireworks at Caesar's Palace
Not only can you see what is sure to be a spectacular fireworks show on the 4th at 9 p.m. at the Roman Plaza, but on both Saturday and Sunday, Caesar's Palace has smartly brought us an opportunity to cool down.
They're transforming the Roman Plaza into what they call a "cool zone" complete with a four-story ski jump (no you can't go on it--just professional skiers and snowboarders who will do demonstrations) and a walk-through ice lounge. Personally, I'd try to hang out on the ice lounge as long as possible with temps well into the hundreds.
2. Station Casino's 4th of July Blast
Station Casinos, with Grucci having their back, will simultaneously launch fireworks at Green Valley Ranch, Aliante Station, Fiesta Rancho, Texas Station and Red Rock at 9 p.m. on the 4th. Too bad we can't be at all 5 locations at once. I went to Red Rock last year and watched from the parking garage. They were pretty good and convenient without the tourist crowds.
And I even forgive them for opening up Aliante Station instead of Durango Station like they were supposed to do many moons ago (and even up to 2008 were still swearing it was about to open).
3. Fremont Street
It looks like Fremont Street isn't satisfied with just celebrating July 4th, they have stuff going on from the 2nd to the 5th. On Friday, July 2nd, The Golden Nugget will start the Independence Day weekend early with launching its fireworks at 10:10 p.m. on July 2nd--isn't that premature celebration?
The next night you can go "Reminiscing" with The Little River Band who performs on the 3rd Street Stage on July 3rd at 9 p.m.
And there are always virtual fireworks available overhead on the Fremont Street Experience Viva Vision in-between its regular showings.
The main thing with Fremont Street is when it gets crowded it can get much hotter than the 100 or so degrees of actual temperature, and at times you may feel like you simply can't move or get any air--that happened to me when it was only May a couple of years ago when I went to see Sugarland at Fremont Street. So drink plenty of fluids--and I don't mean that mega alcohol drink you might be carrying around if you're visiting--that will dehydrate you fast!
There's lots more going on to celebrate the 4th Of July in Vegas--for even more options, check out this piece from the Review Journal.
And that's the Vegas Inside Scoop on where to go see fireworks in Las Vegas. Have a happy and safe 4th everyone!
