Long, sunny days
Spring is here bringing long, sunny days on the slopes where you can replace your winter jacket with short sleeves (or a tank top like Quincy Young did on our cover) and enjoy the warm rays before gearing up for a night out on the town. With the return of the WinterWonderGrass Festival to Squaw Valley from April 1 to 3, you can enjoy runs on the slopes and then catch the live music and craft brews into the wee hours of the morning without ever having to get back in your car.
The changing of the seasons also marks the return of Tahoe Music & Festivals, your guide to the best live music, events, festivals, food & wine festivities, and all-around fun celebrations to enjoy this spring. Each season, we round up the best things to do in Tahoe, Truckee, Reno and beyond in our Tahoe Music & Festivals guide to share with our readers.
Along with great live music throughout the region every night (check out The Music Scene in each issue), Spring is a great season to enjoy local theater, including this year’s Follies in Truckee and Incline Village, check out the celebrations for Earth Day, Cinco de Mayo, the Reno River Festival and the Reno Sculpture Fest to name a few, and explore culinary outings from wine tastings to the Edible Book Festival. And, let’s not forget about those fun bar crawls in downtown Reno (the May crawl will even include a Lightsaber Battle).
