7 Reasons to be Thankful for Spending Thanksgiving Weekend in Reno Tahoe
There are a lot of reasons to be thankful this Thanksgiving. In addition to our loving fans and family, we have 7 more reasons Reno Tahoe is the place to spend your Thanksgiving holiday.
1. We encourage you to step away from the roaster

2. Lake Tahoe Ski Resorts are OPEN
Snow dumped the mountains allowing ski resorts to open early, then the storm cleared out for a blue sky Thanksgiving weekend… Mother Nature, we thank you!
3. Party Thanksgiving Eve at BuBinga
NYE has some friendly competition. Before the family dysfunction and food-induced coma, burn off that extra helping stuffing and gravy by dancing the night away at BuBinga Lounge. Feast on $3 drink specials – like pumpkin pie shots, Wild Turkey and Coors Lights.
4. It’s Opening Weekend of Rink on the River
There is nothing like introducing the holidays with a few laps around the ice rink, hot cocoa in hand, and taking in the sights of Reno’s downtown Christmas tree glistening next to the Truckee River.
5. Time for the annual Scheels Turkey Trot
Trot away extra calories with friends and family, and give thanks to good health Thanksgiving morning at the Sparks Marina.
6. There is a wide variety of entertainment lined up
What do Rodney Carrington, Alice Cooper and The Commodores have in common? Not much, aside from they are famous and performing in Reno Tahoe Thanksgiving weekend!
7. Hotel deals!
