Tahoe Blue Event Center is Open! |
|
The Lake Tahoe Visitors Authority is delighted to spotlight the recent opening of the Tahoe Blue Event Center, an embodiment of our commitment to bolstering Lake Tahoe’s reputation as a premier event destination. In a remarkably short time, this state-of-the-art facility has already welcomed an array of notable events, ranging from the prestigious meetings of the National Association of State Park Directors and the Business Council of Douglas County to high-energy gatherings like Comic Con, WWE, and a performance by Pitbull. The Event Center’s calendar shows no signs of slowing down, with more conferences and concerts like DMA West, Billy Strings, and Adam Sandler all set to grace the building in the coming weeks. The LTVA is proud to have played an instrumental role in bringing this venue to fruition, and we are confident that the Tahoe Blue Event Center will continue to be a beacon for world-class events, further enriching our community’s cultural and economic landscape. |
