Annual Winter Display At Mystic Falls At Sam's Town Opens 11/27!

Sam’s Town Hotel and Gambling Hall will be kicking off the holiday season with the public lighting of its special winter display at Mystic Falls Park on Wednesday, November 27 at 4:30 p.m.

Boyd Gaming Executive Chairman Bill Boyd will be joined by Sam’s Town Vice President and General Manager John Sou, to flip the switch on the first run of the holiday show. Cowboy Santa and Mrs. Claus, along with the Chaparral High School Choir, will join this year’s festivities.

“We are so excited to celebrate the generosity and spirit of the season with the many southern Nevada families who have made the Mystic Falls display a part of their holiday traditions,” Bill Boyd said.

The pioneer-themed Mystic Falls Park Light and Water Show, transformed into an immersive winter wonderland experience, begins in Sam’s Town’s porte-cochère with festive lighting and decorative snowflakes leading to Mystic Falls Park. Garland streams, wreath-adorned lampposts, and white light and snow-covered trees fill the atrium, while Cowboy Santa takes up residence in the Park’s gazebo.

Poinsettias, red garland, ice crystals add to the themed visuals, while the main fountain will host an ice sculpture. Lighted sculpture polar bears and indoor snow create a whimsical magical winter wonderland experience in the heart of the Boulder Strip.

Sam’s Town will be hosting the 15-minute laser light spectacular hourly during the holiday season, from 5 p.m. to 10 p.m. through January 1. And from November 29 to December 23, Cowboy Santa will appear Thursdays and Fridays from 4 to 8:30 p.m., and Saturdays and Sundays from 12 to 8:30 p.m.

In addition, to help members of the Armed Forces stay in touch with loved ones during the holiday season, Sam’s Town will once again host a drive for the Cell Phones for Soldiers Program, accepting donations of used cell phones, chargers and other accessories from November 1 through 27.  Each phone donated to the program will provide an hour of talk time to soldiers abroad. To date, the non-profit organization has distributed more than 2.5 million prepaid calling cards to soldiers serving overseas.

Guests can drop off used cell phones, chargers and other accessories at the B Connected Club at Sam’s Town. All participants in the promotion will receive a two-for-one coupon for Sam’s Town’s Firelight Buffet.
