This pandemic is really starting to get on our last nerve.<\/p>\n

The Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority (LVCVA) has confirmed what many feared: Las Vegas won’t have fireworks on The Strip to welcome in 2021.<\/p>\n

It’s worth noting downtown’s Plaza casino will have fireworks, albeit on a much smaller scale than visitors have come to expect on The Strip.<\/p>\n

It’s unknown how Fremont Street Experience will handle the virtual fireworks shown each year on its Viva Vision screen.<\/p>\n

We’ll be curious to see if off-Strip casinos also cancel their fireworks. Red Rock Station tends to have rather lavish fireworks displays. Here’s a look.<\/p>\n
