Amidst the traditional and legendary “America’s Fireworks Party” on The Strip, the celebrity-hosted NYE parties in Las Vegas are what truly took over the weekend’s festivities with their concert resemblance. One after another state-of-the-art nightclub seemed to be having a contest with each other as to who was the loudest and rowdiest of the night. But quite frankly, with the hosts over the weekend ranging from GRAMMY Award-winning rappers to some of the world’s most illustrious and sought-after EDM artists, it’s a competition they might all have equally won. The star-studded, high-energy New Year’s Weekend in Las Vegas proved furthermore that the city is very much the place you want to explore as a New Year’s Eve destination. And though the slogan may have been modified to “What happens in Las Vegas, ends up on Facebook,” at least your friends and coworkers will be able to witness what it looks like to ring in the New Year in extravagant style.
