Las Vegas July 4th 2026: America — The Show, Fireworks & Parades

America — The Show opens at the Modern Showrooms at Alexis Park Resort Hotel with weekend afternoon performances every Saturday and Sunday at 4pm. The 75-minute variety show runs covers from “Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy” to Neil Diamond's “America” with prop comedian Joe Trammel on the bill. Adult tickets start at $37.95, kids at $12.95, at VegasAmerica.com. That price point and that room size will draw families who would otherwise be walking past a timeshare pitch.

July 4 brings synchronized rooftop fireworks from at least eight Strip properties simultaneously at 9pm — Caesars Palace, Treasure Island, The Venetian, MGM Grand, Aria, Planet Hollywood, Resorts World, Fontainebleau, and The STRAT all launching at the same time. Downtown, the Plaza runs its own rooftop show at 9pm against the Fremont Street light canopy. Station Casinos covers the locals market with shows at Red Rock Resort, Durango, and Green Valley Ranch, also at 9pm. Lake Las Vegas adds a free all-day event with live music, a boat parade, and a lakeside fireworks finale. The M Resort in Henderson runs a choreographed 15-minute show at its pool at 9pm. Buckskin Basin Park in Northwest Las Vegas hosts a neighborhood celebration with community activities and fireworks, also at 9pm.

Cowabunga Canyon and Cowabunga Bay both move their fireworks to July 3 at 8:50pm — Canyon on South Fort Apache Road, Bay on Galleria Drive in Henderson. The Summerlin Patriotic Parade draws tens of thousands to the Summerlin area on July 4 with more than 70 entries including 20-plus giant inflatables and appearances from the Golden Knights and Raiders. Boulder City runs its Damboree tradition the same day — pancake breakfast through veterans flyover through evening fireworks at Veterans Memorial Park. Henderson's Heritage Park celebration on July 4 is free, headlined by Collin Raye, and ends with fireworks.
