LAS VEGAS (FOX5) — Clark County commissioners approved a new Las Vegas Strip parade honoring female Olympians, clearing the way for a free public event organizers say will kick off a four-day sports and entertainment celebration in July.
The event, called “She Weekend,” is being organized by She’s Got Game LLC in partnership with MGM Resorts, according to details presented in the Clark County Commission meeting on Tuesday.
The celebration is backed by longtime Las Vegas resident Flavor Flav.

Organizers said the parade would travel down the Las Vegas Boulevard and end with a concert at Toshiba Plaza. The four-day event is scheduled for July 16-19.
Commissioners described the event as another step toward positioning Las Vegas as a global sports and entertainment destination, as the city also prepares for a new professional women’s hockey team.
Organizers said they are working with local youth sports teams and summer camps to involve children and hope a visit from Olympians will inspire young athletes across the Las Vegas Valley.
