Please keep in mind that with COVID-19 still an issue, you should call ahead to any event or location to see if they are open and if there any requirements you should know of.

Bellagio Conservative Garden and Bellagio Water Show – LINK

Each season, the enormously talented horticulturalists and designers who make up the Bellagio Conservatory team transform this 14,000-square-foot floral playground into a showcase of the distinctive sights and colors of spring, summer, fall and winter—along with a special display for Chinese New Year. When the seasons turn and the displays rotate, 90 percent of the trees, flowers and plants in the conservatory are recycled, to further celebrate our commitment to the earth.

Parking is FREE and mask kiosks are placed in various areas with hand sanitizer stations.  Depending on how busy the conservatory is, you may need to wait in line to enter.  The Bellagio is taking precautions to keep distancing yourself easier for us.

Fremont Street Experience  – LINK

The Fremont Street Experience is open daily!  Shows start at 6pm and end at 1am.  After 9pm, the experience becomes an 18+ event.

Viva Vision is the largest video screen in the world, and recently got a $32 million upgrade! The renovated screen boasts 16.4 million brilliant pixels. Here’s a look at some of the mind-blowing visuals created especially for the shiny new jewel of downtown Las Vegas.

Springs Preserve – outdoor area only LINK

The Springs Preserve is temporarily closed

In response to Governor Sisolak’s request that Nevadans stay at home to reduce the spread of COVID-19 within the community, the Springs Preserve will close to members and the public until further notice. The closure takes effect Friday, November 13.  While we only recently reopened our outdoor spaces to the public, we believe it is in the best interests of the health and safety of everyone in the community to temporarily cease operations. The Springs Preserve hopes to reopen outdoor attractions, museums, exhibits and other indoor attractions as soon as conditions allow.

McKee Ranch Foundation – LINK

Family owned and ran by the McKee family, this is my families favorite place to visit in Las Vegas!  Free to attend this is a 401c (non-profit) that hosts events and activities your family will love donating to.  Chickens run free, bunnies are everywhere, and Duncan the Donkey is always top on our visit list.

Silverton Mermaid Show – LINK

Our signature 117,000-gallon reef aquarium will transport you to a tropical oasis where you can admire thousands of tropical fish, and three species each of stingrays and sharks. In addition, the Mermaid Lounge features two 500-gallon jellyfish aquariums lit with LED lights.

Ethel M Cactus Gardens – LINK

At this time, the garden is completely booked. If you weren’t able to get a reservation, we are so sorry but have to limit garden capacity due to the pandemic. You are welcome to stop by as a walk in and, if there’s capacity available due to ‘no shows’, we will happily let you in.
