This summer one of the most unique dining experiences in Las Vegas is dining among wonder and wanderlust during brunch or dinner inside the Bellagio Conservatory & Botanical Gardens.
The spectacular flora and fauna display, "Higher Love," is a whimsical hot air balloon theme, drawing inspiration from steampunk, European nostalgia, universal love and nature's beauty.
On view now through August 24, 2024, the stunning floral displays have been brought to life by designer Ed Libby and the creative Bellagio Horticulture team. "This incredible display was created to inspire guests to reflect on how love can lift us all up," said Libby. "We hope 'Higher Love' not only enchants our visitors, but garners feelings of growth, celebration and warmth through all the iconic symbols associated with the splendor of the summer season."
Located in the West Bed is the Garden Table tucked within the beauty of the Conservatory. Guests are invited to hop aboard the basket of a spectacular 36-foot-tall hot air balloon overlooking the picturesque Bellagio Conservatory.
