What You Need To Know

Depending on when you go, you’ll be able to enjoy a different landscape featuring Spring, Summer, Fall, and Winter, along with a special display for Lunar New Year.

No matter the season, one thing is certain: the displays will be nothing short of breathtaking, over-the-top pretty, and beyond your wildest imagination.

Here’s a quick look at some of our favorites from previous seasons:

Summer 2024

The Summer Display 2024 is themed “Higher Love”. The display features hot air balloons and new floral arrangements. The display is meant to inspire guests to reflect on how love can lift people up. Isn’t that such a sweet theme?

The Bellagio’s Summer 2024 display draws inspiration from steampunk, European nostalgia, and nature’s timeless beauty, welcoming the season with whimsical hot air balloons and stunning floral arrangements.

Seven intricately designed hot air balloons feature 75,000 preserved roses and floral elements, including a 36-foot-tall balloon adorned with the Bellagio’s iconic “B”.

Lunar New Year 2024

The Lunar New Year seasonal display follows the Winter-themed display. The 2024 display was called “Infinite Prosperity: The Year of the Dragon.

It’s notable in scale, made of 23,000 fresh and preserved flowers just on the eight children and 8,000 handmade scales on a single dragon. There are also 12,000 plants, 1,800 I-Ching coins, 800 bamboo plants, 24 cherry blossom trees, and nine dragon medallions.

The Bellagio display beautifully paid homage to Chinese culture with rich symbolism.

Highlights included a 30-foot replica of the Temple of Six Banyan Trees, featuring a dragon presenting a pearl for luck and prosperity. A waterfall over mossy rocks symbolized a cleansing for the new year, while bronze ding pots expressed gratitude for the past.

The main attraction showcased children performing a dragon dance under a red silk canopy, with firecrackers to ward off evil spirits. Lions guarding the bridge represented safety, and the bridge itself symbolized unity and connection.
