Things to Do in Las Vegas – April 2026

April is one of the best times to visit Las Vegas because it’s the perfect mix of cool mornings and sunny afternoons. The city comes to life in the spring with plenty of opportunities to experience art, food, relaxing spa days, and more. Whether you’re planning a quick weekend trip or a longer vacation, here’s our list of things to do in Las Vegas in April.

There’s no better way to celebrate the new life of spring than visiting the Botanical Gardens at the Bellagio. The seasonal displays are full of bright colors and interesting textures you’ll never forget.

Each year features a new theme to welcome the spring season. The Spring 2024 display was a tea party theme with a teapot, rabbit, and digital screens in the background to make it feel like a dream. In 2025, the “Birds and the B’s” incorporated a waterfall and a giant statue of Mother Earth.

Creative teams spend months coming up with new themes and designs, which is what makes the Bellagio Conservatory one of the most unique visual experiences in the city.

Spring is a time of rebirth and the perfect opportunity to spend a long day at the spa. Going on a peaceful wellness retreat is the best way to refresh your body and mind for the new season. April is a great month to experience luxury spa days in Las Vegas, from morning massages to quiet swims under the afternoon sun.

At MGM Resorts, we have a selection of spas to choose from, each with their own unique features and charm. At these locations, you can get traditional spa services like massages and facials, along with manicures and pedicures.

In our experience, April is one of the best times to book special spring packages to help you relax and feel better at a discount.

Since the Las Vegas pool season starts in March, it’s already in full swing by April. Whether you’re looking for the most energetic pool parties or a lazy day under a cabana, there are plenty of MGM pools with a unique vibe to suit every mood.

The Bellagio pool features five pools with a peaceful Mediterranean setting with classical statues and cypress trees. The ARIA pool deck is more sleek and modern with luxury decor.

The MGM Grand Pool Complex is spread out over acres of land filled with pools, lazy rivers, cabanas, bars, and more, earning its “complex” moniker and making it feel like a legitimate retreat from the goings on in the nearby resorts and casinos.

One of the best things about April are the performances at Dolby Live inside Park MGM. No matter who is performing, the modern sound system and cozy layout will make the show unforgettable. April’s lineup of artists welcomes spring with energetic performances, from residencies to one-time events.

Tickets for big name events sell out quickly, so it’s recommended to plan ahead and take advantage of presales to secure your seats early.

April in Las Vegas brings lots of seasonal foods from award winning chefs. You’ll find spring menus with fresh ingredients and creative presentations that are sure to delight. Experience these special seasonal touches at restaurants inside the MGM Grand, Bellagio, ARIA, and more.

The Las Vegas Strip holds paintings, sculptures, installations, and more from the world’s most famous artists. April is the perfect time to experience these hidden gems inside MGM resorts.

The ARIA Fine Art Collection is one of the most interesting to look at because it includes works that are built right into the resort's structure. Each piece was carefully chosen to be a part of a bigger display instead of standing alone. The Gallery of Fine Art at Bellagio puts on changing shows that honor both modern artists and stars from the past. In our experience, the best time to quietly enjoy the art is in the peaceful mornings.

April is a great time of year to experience the art, food, luxury, and overall thrill of Las Vegas before the real summer heat sets in. From garden displays to relaxing spa days and exciting shows, MGM Resorts has it all in the springtime and beyond.
