Every December 31, Las Vegas lights up with a spectacular NYE fireworks display to welcome the year ahead – and the celebration at the end of 2025 will be no exception. The city will ring in 2026 with an unforgettable show, featuring fireworks launched from 9 hotels along the Strip.
The fireworks display will last about 8 minutes, showcasing several thousand synchronized bursts in a thrilling blend of music and visuals. The command center for the show will be hosted at the Rio Hotel.
