How many massive music festivals can rival Lollapalooza in a mountain town AND in the winter? Almost never!

What is SnowGlobe

For those that don’t visit South Lake Tahoe over New Year’s, SnowGlobe is considered California’s biggest New Year’s Eve event. It really is! This annual throwdown is a three-day event hosted in South Lake Tahoe on the seasonally-dormant Community Playfields near the Lake Tahoe Community College campus. The show leans toward electronic music artists, but they always make sure there’s a few acts from other genres to spice things up. In past years, chart topping acts like Skrillex, Zedd, and Snoop Dogg have graced the multi-stage event.

Skiers, snowboarders, and music lovers will find the ultimate escape for New Year’s Eve in Lake Tahoe, CA like no other. Combine all this fun with world-class resorts within striking distance, and the opportunity to escape in the fresh powder is right at your fingertips. Now that’s how you start a new year off right!

 Insider’s Tips

It’s Tahoe. It’s winter. And it’s at night. Even if it is warm during the day, once the sun sets, it will get VERY cold. Skip the boho-chic festival wear and put on your parka and a pair of warm boots. And if the dancing doesn’t warm you up, the heated enclosures will. We recommend leaving the car wherever you’re staying. Convenient shuttles link the event to Stateline accommodations.
