Snipers and spotters will be part of an increased Las Vegas police presence keeping watch over New Year’s Eve festivities this weekend.
New Year’s Eve Las Vegas
If you want to start your New Year’s Eve celebration early — and/or make it last all evening — you can do it with the twice-in-one-night celebrations planned at two local bearers of the U.K. spirit.
There may be fewer people visiting Las Vegas to ring in the new year, but expect to see the same round of road closures to make way for large-scale celebrations.
Fireworks will go off at midnight from the rooftops of Caesars Palace, Planet Hollywood Resort, MGM Grand, Aria, Treasure Island, The Venetian and Stratosphere.
What has 12 bands, more than 80,000 firework devices and some 330,000 guests from all over the world?
The FBI will bring in about 100 people from outside the Las Vegas area to increase its presence during New Year’s Eve, the agency’s Las Vegas chief said Wednesday.
