"Made In Tahoe" Festival Returns Memorial Day Weekend

Made In Tahoe Festival

The 5th Annual Made In Tahoe Festival returns to the Village at Palisades Tahoe for Memorial Day Weekend on May 27-28. This exciting event celebrates all things local and hosts a wide array of offerings that are made in or inspired by the Lake Tahoe Basin and Truckee areas. Local artisans, businesses, culinarians, organizations and entertainers will come together to celebrate all things Made in Tahoe including music, food, art, clothing, and more. Festivities will take place from 11:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. on Saturday, May 27 and 11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. on Sunday, May 28.

 "Year after year, we’re consistently awed by the talented performers and creative vendors who share their crafts at the Made In Tahoe festival,” said Caroline Ross, executive director for the Squaw Village Neighbourhood Company. "Our local community is full of charismatic and passionate individuals and Made In Tahoe is a wonderful opportunity for visitors and locals to experience all things Tahoe amidst the beautiful Palisades Tahoe setting.”

Festival attendees can explore over 100 vendor booths and enjoy performances by Tahoe Flow Artists, Truckee Dance Factory and Tahoe Truckee School of Music Students & Youth Choir and more throughout the weekend. In addition to listening to live music from local bands and musicians, guests can enjoy aerial performances and workshops by Tahoe Flow Arts Studio. New this year, the Tahoe Flow Arts Studio and the Creative Space will showcase a Wizard of Oz production, Hula Hoop workshops and Blues Fusion Dance workshops. On Sunday, guests will learn about Truckee History through a special musical performance at the Events Plaza Stage by the local folk-roots singer Richard Blair.

Local food and beverages will be offered in abundance from Starkey’s, MTN Roots Cafe, Crepe Hearts, Folk Brewing Company, EATS Cooking Company, Empanash, Cheri’s Hand Dipped Ice Creams, Swiss Chalet Fine Foods and more.
