If you’ve ever been to the famous Las Vegas Strip and stopped in front of the Bellagio Hotel and Casino to look in amazement at the fountains outside the property, the intricately designed show is about to undergo a change.
Thanks to a guest.
Scott Krupa, a Marriott Bonvoy member, is a big fan of the display. So he approached the hotel owners and the choreographers of the show, Wet Designs, about re-doing it.
Surprisingly, all parties agreed to the revamp.
Krupa is not a professional but has an interest in music, the arts and lighting. He also treated more than two million of his Marriott Bomboy points for the opportunity to choreograph a new show.
His ideation will be the 40th overall change to the fountains, which synchronizes the water to various songs.
Krupa's creation was set to debut on Monday, August 26. The fountains are one of the most iconic pieces of real estate in Las Vegas.
Bellagio unveiled a new structure earlier this year at a cost of $110 million.
