New Year's Eve fireworks returning to hotel rooftops

Las Vegas Events and the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority announced Friday that the New Year’s Eve celebration known as America’s Party: Las Vegas New Year 2010 will include a spectacular fireworks show fired from seven rooftop locations along the Las Vegas Strip.

The firing locations include the following resort properties: MGM Grand, Planet Hollywood, Aria, Caesars Palace, Treasure Island (TI), Venetian and the Stratosphere.

Fireworks by Grucci of New York will again coordinate the pyrotechnic display.

According to the LVCVA, Las Vegas hosts several hundred thousand visitors for New Year’s Eve.

"Las Vegas continues to be the best venue in the world to ring in the New Year," said Rossi Ralenkotter, president and CEO of the LVCVA. "The fireworks will culminate an evening of celebrity-hosted events at nightclubs, special dining experiences at restaurants, live music at the Fremont Street Experience downtown and much more. There is no other destination that offers the excitement on New Year's Eve."

Thematic elements and the musical portion of the fireworks show will be announced at a later date.
