Tonight’s Fireworks Show on the Strip

by Heather on December 31st, 2007

What’s better than over 8 minutes of fireworks from the tops of a whole lot of hotel buildings? The kids love it, we love it, the newscasters definitely love it!

This year’s New Year’s Eve production has been in motion for months and set-up has been going on for the last five days. This is the fourth year that Fireworks by Grucci has taken care of the Strip and have managed to have Las Vegas’s show billed as the largest New Year’s Eve display in the world!

It’s breezy outside right now but they’ve never had to cancel a show and as long as the wind stays below 10mph tonight they won’t have to anytime soon!

…

If you plan to head out to America’s Party tonight, keep a few things in mind:

~ Children under 18 are not allowed on the Strip between 6pm and 5am without an adult.

~ Glass bottles and metal cans are banned along the Strip and in downtown Las Vegas from 6 p.m. to 6 a.m. Police will confiscate banned containers and could search large bags or backpacks suspected of holding such containers. Offenders can be charged with a misdemeanor.

~ The first road closures will begin about 5 p.m. when the Nevada Department of Transportation shuts down Interstate 15 exits and on-ramps at Tropicana Ave, Flamingo, and Spring Mountain Road. The Tropicana and Spring Mountain exits will be open for southbound traffic heading west.

~ Las Vegas Boulevard and all cross streets will start closing about 6 p.m. between Russell and Sahara. All closure times could change based on traffic and pedestrian volume.

Most importantly, have fun and stay safe!
