HAPPY 100TH BIRTHDAY LAS VEGAS!
We're having a party and you're invited!
On May 15, 2005, Las Vegas will celebrate its 100th Birthday! This historic occasion has something to offer everyone. The Centennial Celebration Committee has promised to commemorate our 100th
Birthday as only Las Vegas can by hosting a party that is bigger and
brighter than the neon lights on the Las Vegas Strip!
Our 100th Birthday will pay tribute to the people, places, things and events that helped our City carve a rich and dynamic place in American and world history. It will also be a great time for residents and tourists to explore the
different aspects of our City, participate in spectacular events and
celebrate the first city of the 21st Century.
The celebration kick-off will be held New Year's Eve, December 31, 2004, and continue throughout the new year with hundreds of events and projects. The largest concentration of our Centennial will take place May - July 2005. This website will give a wealth of information on the Centennial's activities and provide information on events, merchandise, history, sponsorships and more.
The Commission for the Las Vegas Centennial Celebration wants your help in celebrating this once-in-a-lifetime event. Everyone living in Las Vegas and the surrounding communities will have an opportunity to learn, enjoy and take part in the history and culture that our City has to offer. It will also give us an opportunity to dream about the future of Las Vegas.
There will be plenty of chances for everyone to participate, lend a hand and have a good time. We encourage you to visit this website for updates about the fabulous events taking place throughout our birthday year.
