The Las Vegas Strip was ablaze with fireworks late Sunday night as Nevadans and tourists celebrated the Fourth of July.
Coordinated displays were launched from several hotel-casino properties as hundreds of thousands of visitors and locals watched.
The weekend was the first major holiday since Nevada returned to normal activities after more than a year of pandemic measures forced the closure of all resorts for several months. A few remain closed.
More than a dozen fireworks shows and events were held around the valley on Sunday night.
