Fountains of Bellagio
3600 Las Vegas Blvd S, Bellagio, Las Vegas, NV 89109-4339 702-693-7111
Description: THE STRIP. Stand on the promenade overlooking beautiful Lake Bellagio and the stunning hotel and casino of the same name behind it. The music starts and the fountains rise from still waters. The water dance is magical, whether it be a soft shoe or a rambunctious high-spirited number. The compelling routines vary widely and are worth seeing over and over. The water is propelled several stories in the air in time to the music in gracefully choreographed configurations. This is an experience that will leave you with a smile on your face and a song in your head.

Fremont Street Experience
425 Fremont St, Las Vegas, NV 89101 702-678-5777
Description: DOWNTOWN. Occupying the portion of downtown Vegas where the city began, this pedestrian mall is more than just shopping or a simple nod to the past. The attraction in the heart of Old Vegas presents a goodly array of retail venues, restaurants, casinos, and performance stages, all of which provide welcome distraction throughout the day and night. The real draw, however, is an LED screen canopy stretched overhead the length of five football fields, 90 feet above visitors. Once twilight falls, shows and videos are broadcast larger-than-life on the screen, granting folks below a variety of entertainments that riff on the American experience, marine creatures, extraterrestrial life, and more. Music, sound, and light engulf you during the shows, which beautifully unite spectacle and technology. They take place on the hour and are absolutely free.

Mirage Volcano
3400 Las Vegas Blvd S, The Mirage, Las Vegas, NV 89109 702-791-7111
Description: THE STRIP. Smoke, fire, and the power of geological forces present themselves every 15 minutes after dusk, accompanied by an original, percussive soundtrack. Stop by and be entertained by the sheer magnitude of the spectacular display. The eruption features 119,000 gallons of water per minute and is situated on three water-covered acres. Don't get too close or you could be consumed by the "lava" and "flames." The display is so realistic and engrossing that you can easily lose sight of the fact that this is a manmade attraction, with no help given by Mother Nature whatsoever. Another great Las Vegas spectacle!
