First time at the Bellagio Conservatory Botanical Gardens? Here’s what you need to know.
The Bellagio Conservatory & Botanical Gardens is one of the iconic Vegas things to do on the Strip. We rarely visit the Strip as locals, but we make exceptions to visit every season when they change their decor. And sometimes again when we have visitors.
Over the years, we’ve taken so many photos and videos of their seasonal displays that we decided to share them all in one place, along with our best local tips.

About the Bellagio Conservatory & Botanical Gardens
The Bellagio Conservatory transforms the 14,000-square-foot space into a new imaginary world each season. I’m always impressed by how they keep all these plants alive and beautiful when I struggle with the few I have.
Bellagio has 120 gardeners alone, and then you add in the designers, engineers, and electricians, and you have a massive team.
How often does Bellagio Conservatory change?
The Horticulture and Engineering teams work on these massive displays five times a year. They also replant and repurpose the living plant materials as much as possible.

This was the first time I stepped foot inside Bellagio Conservatory Botanical Gardens. I had only brought my long portrait lens, so close-up shots it is!
Tips for First-Time Visitors
- The gardens can get quite crowded. The best time to visit is early morning when most people are still asleep.
- Some installations look completely different during the day (natural light) and night (all lit up).
- The exhibits are big. A wide lens is needed to capture the scale of everything.
- The Giardini Garden Store, just around the corner, sells unique garden-themed gifts.
