The celebration for USA 250 has begun and it's already looking AWESOME!!!

Something exciting is underway at Hoover Dam!

Together with our partners at the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority, the Bureau of Reclamation is helping kick off the “Road to America 250” in a big way. A massive American flag, stretching nearly the size of a football field, now hangs across the face of Hoover Dam, marking the start of a special celebration.

Each evening, Hoover Dam will glow in red, white and blue, giving visitors an early look at a patriotic display that will continue to grow as we approach July 4.

Join us in this historic celebration between now and July 4 to see the display in person and get a preview of what is still to come.
