It’s Labor Day weekend and summer isn’t over yet in Tahoe City. In true North Shore style, Tahoe City is going big for one last afternoon on the beach and a weekend shopping spree.

Bring the whole family into Tahoe City on Saturday, September 3rd for live music, blowout discounts at local retailers, merchandise specials, lunch and dinner specials at many fabulous restaurants, and the closing day for Concerts at Commons Beach on Sunday, September 4th.

Annual Sidewalk Sale
Don’t miss another fabulous reason to buy local at the 8th Annual Downtown Tahoe City town-wide Labor Day Weekend Sidewalk Sale. Starting Saturday, September 3rd and extending through Monday, September 5th this sale offers some of the best deals of the season for locals and visitors to Tahoe City.

Shop Local
Spend $50 in your favorite 3 stores as part of “The National 3/50 Project” (www.The3/50Project.net).  Did you know that for every $100 spent in locally owned independent stores, $68 returns to the community through taxes, payroll and other expenditures? It really pays to Shop Local.

Save big on summer & winter gear at Tahoe Dave’s Skis & Boards Tent Sale and Alpenglow Sports' Sidewalk blow-out where you can find a range of items such as footwear, clothing, skis, snowboards, bindings and many other outdoor accessories.

Explore all the shops in the Boatworks Mall, the Cobblestone Center and along Tahoe City's quaint cobblestone sidewalks for end-of-season specials on everything from fine art to home décor and souvenirs. And, don’t miss James-Harold Galleries' Exhibition of the nocturnal illusionist paintings of Frank Wilson, your “Painter Of Dreams”.

New Shops to Discover
Many new stores have opened in Tahoe City since last Labor Day. Joining the scene at the Cobblestone Center is Lather & Fizz, Kunst Furniture, Itsy-Bitsy Beachwear & Lace, and New & Used Tahoe Sports (NUTS), as well as the new location for The Bookshelf bookstore.
