    I will be with my family in the Las Vegas area at this time. Where would be the best place to view the fireworks?

    • Web Team says:

      The fireworks shows themselves are similar, synchronized in fact, set to different music at the different locations but really the same. Most folks wind up going to the show closest to home. What side of town are you staying?

  2. Nick says:

    Where is the best viewing area for Red Rock if we wanted to actually watch from the casino? I thought I read something about the pool?

    • Web Team says:

      hey Nick, we don’t have all the details just yet, but the pool area is only going to be available to hotel guests, bummer, we know, public viewing is in the parking lots, earlier the better to stake out a good spot, happy 4th and thanks

      • Amy says:

        Does the “no locals at pool area” apply to all of the Station Casino pool areas? Green Valley used to allow locals for the fireworks show, at the pool. It is where we go every year. I am hoping Green Valley will still allow locals to view the fireworks show at the pool??

        • Web Team says:

          Hi Amy, “no locals at the pool area” isn’t quite accurate. It’s “no non-hotel guests at the pool area unless you rent a cabana or go to The Pond, which is free by the way,” … sorry, same difference as we know what you meant. Whatever you call it, the GVR pool for the fireworks will not be open to the public this year. The public viewing area for everyone is on the top of the Paseo Verde Garage. Sorry, thanks, hope you enjoy the show.

  3. Lee says:

    Seems again this year the folks on the East side that love Boulder Station are missing out.

    Hopefully next year Boulder will be part of the show.

    Thank you Station Casinos for all the great things you do for the Las Vegas Community!

    Texas station with BOB will ROCK!

  5. Natalie says:

    Will the fireworks at Red Rock be coordinated with music? If so, what radio station should we tune into?

    • Nate says:

      Yes! The station to tune into will be FM 96.3 KKLZ. We also encourage you to come by Red Rock to the live radio remote. Good times and you could even pick up some free concert tickets!

  6. Stefan says:

    Hi there
    We are staying at the Bellagio in the week of July. What is the best are the closest point to watch the fireworks on July, 4th? Does it 9pm? And how long does it last?

    • Web Team says:

      Hi, thanks for visiting Las Vegas for the 4th of July! Our closest casino to The Strip having fireworks is Texas Station/Fiesta Rancho (more local flavor) with Red Rock (more resorty) being a little farther. Is that what you are asking? Anyway, if you’re in a car/cab it’s not much different really. The show start a little after 9pm and last 9 minutes. Happy 4th!

  7. Vivian says:

    I’d like to take my grandson (visiting from California) to see the fireworks at Red Rock Casino. Where is the best place to park?

    • Web Team says:

      sounds fun, the best way park is “early,” no, you should get there early but parking will be available in all out garages, as well as around/outside the property, if you are not going to go into the casino after the fireworks, we like parking in the outside lots that are right off Charleston Blvd because 1) that is where the public viewing area is, 2) you can get out easier. Lastly, might want to skip the valet if you can as that might be super busy, enjoy the show, thanks
