Fireworks are slated to launch from the rooftops of the Aria, MGM Grand, Planet Hollywood, The Strat, Treasure Island, Caesars Palace, The Venetian, Resorts World, and — for the first time — the Fontainebleau Las Vegas at midnight.

The Las Vegas Valley has a 30 percent chance of showers during the day on Wednesday and 50 percent chance Wednesday night, according to the weather service.

New Year’s Day is expected is be mostly sunny with a high of 61 degrees and low of 40 degrees, the weather service said.
