New Year’s fireworks will be launched from seven Las Vegas resorts to help thousands of revelers ring in the start of 2017, the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority announced Thursday.

Las Vegas Boulevard will be closed so visitors can pack the streets to watch pyrotechnics illuminate the night sky above Aria, Caesars Palace, MGM Grand, Planet Hollywood, Stratosphere, Treasure Island and The Venetian.

Fireworks and live entertainment also will celebrate the new year’s arrival at the Fremont Street Experience in downtown Las Vegas.
