when does the bellagio fountain go off
For those of us too poor to actually stay at The Bellagio, the free fountain show out front is a great consolation prize. Blasting off every 15 minutes on the weekends and holidays and every 30 minutes during weekdays, the truly majestic Bellagio Fountains Las Vegas has become a signature sight on the Strip.
Letâs face it: whenever you see photos of Las Vegas, youâre bound to see the famous dancing waters on Lake Bellagio. An exact schedule is posted below, but basically, the fountain show runs every 1/2 hour in the afternoons, and every 15 minutes at night. Performances run 365 days a year, only shutting down when there are extreme winds. Opened during the resortâs grand opening in October of 1998, the fountains were apparently originally going to have colored lights. (The lake has nearly 5,000 lights). However, according to a story in USA Today, Steve Wynn preferred the classic white look.
