For 25 years, Valhalla Tahoe has hosted an annual Holiday Faire at the Heller Estate for the enjoyment of the community. Valhalla Tahoe and our volunteers celebrate the season by decking the Grand Hall for everyone’s enjoyment. A favorite tradition for many local families, you can get a glimpse of Tahoe’s past while shopping for hand-made crafts, taking free photos with Mr. and Mrs Claus, and enjoying local entertainment and holiday libations. Tahoe’s Children’s Choirs line the balcony to sing holiday songs throughout the day.

Unique Gift Ideas for Local Vendors

The Holiday Faire features an eclectic mix of hand-made crafts that make special gifts for your family and friends. From Tahoe-themed items to gifts crafted in South America and France, Valhalla brings together a variety of vendors who care about Lake Tahoe and the community we’ve created. Every purchase of $25 or more earns the shopper an entry in Valhalla’s annual fundraising raffle. Raffle tickets are also available for purchase. Baskets with items donated by our vendors will be on display and delivered to drawing winners after the event. With more than 30 vendors showing their wares, you’re bound to find just the right item for the person who is hardest to shop for on your list.
