It’s been a minute since it rained on New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day on the Las Vegas Strip and in the Las Vegas Valley – and residents and visitors alike received fog warnings.

But in the smoke and fog, it was still New Year’s Eve on the Las Vegas Strip.

No matter the damp weather as fireworks exploded as The Entertainment Capital of the World said goodbye to 2025 and hello to 2026 – Happy New Year, and the best to all in 2026!

Our thanks to Tom Donoghue for his images capturing the final hours of 2025 in Las Vegas.
