LAS VEGAS, July 4 (Vegas News Online) — Las Vegas is lining up eight Saturday nights of America250 fireworks this summer, with free outdoor viewing options for visitors planning trips around the city’s 250th-birthday celebration.

The shows are scheduled from June 6 through July 25, 2026, at 9 p.m. each night and are expected to run about eight minutes, according to the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority and Visit Las Vegas. Music will be synchronized on KOMP 92.3 FM, 97.1 FM The Point and 98.9 HANK FM.

Launch sites will rotate among multiple Strip and downtown properties, including Caesars Palace, Treasure Island, The Venetian Resort, MGM Grand, ARIA Resort & Casino, Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino, Resorts World Las Vegas, Fontainebleau Las Vegas, The STRAT Hotel, Casino & Tower, The Plaza Hotel & Casino, Binion’s Gambling Hall and Fremont Street Experience parking garages, organizers said.

July 4 will be the biggest night in the series, with a fully synchronized display launched from nine rooftops across The Strip. The City of Las Vegas also lists public viewing and event spots for that holiday, including Buckskin Basin Park, Cashman Field after a 7:30 p.m. soccer game and The Plaza’s own fireworks show.

Visit Las Vegas says the shows can be watched from outdoor public areas with sky access, including the Strip sidewalk. Sphere’s Exosphere is also slated for complementary programming on each Saturday in June and July.
