The biggest sensation to the Reno River Festival returns bigger and more amped up than ever! This moving concert is a celebration of everything bicycle. The Island of Black and White will take you on a soulful, slow ride with a performance and a sound system that will turn heads. The lead singer will weave through the costumed crowd of cyclists as you take an unforgettable tour of the streets of Reno.
The Craft Beer Experience is getting hopped up in 2019 with more live music and more taps to satisfy your thirst! The Craft Beer Village on the peninsula peak is expanding. It will boast the perfect view of the live music on our newly-built second stage, as well as the perfect view of the whitewater events. Upgrade to the full craft beer experience with access to the Limited Release Tent where you’ll have VIP viewing of the nationally-recognized acts on our main stage while sampling the rarest brews from local breweries.
There is nothing quite like the light, refreshing taste of summer bottled into a crisp glass of wine. Relax under the summer-themed shaded wine village with a VIP view of the Reno River Festival’s music lineup on the main stage. Choose your flights! The Summer Wine Village will feature a wide range of Reds, Whites, Roses, Champagnes, and Sangrias.
Experience an unforgettable Mother’s Day weekend at the Reno River Festival’s adrenaline-pumping Reno Tahoe Adventure Park. 2019 will feature the largest collection of obstacles, rides, challenges, and games ever. The park boasts a summer carnival atmosphere with one-of-a-kind thrills for the entire family. Whether you have little ones who like to bounce or you want to fly high above the record rapids of the Truckee River, the Adventure Park has fun for everyone.
