New Year’s Eve North Lake Tahoe – Truckee December 31 2016

New Year’s Eve North Lake Tahoe – Truckee December 31 2016 

New Year’s Eve North Lake Tahoe - Truckee December 31 2016Things to do on New Year’s Eve in North Lake Tahoe – Truckee December 31 2016!

One of the great things about living and being in the North Lake Tahoe and Truckee area is the ability to make last-minute reservations and plans for New Year’s Eve!

While some events will sell out, if you’re still trying to decide how you’ll celebrate December 31, 2016 there are a number of choices, and many of them are FREE events.

You’ll find events and activities that are planned here in North Lake Tahoe area at either Tahoe Donner,  Northstar, or at Squaw Valley.

We been to both the Northstar annual Fire and Ice New Year’s Eve Celebration and the fire works at Squaw Valley and both have great fire works.

Our local free events are fun, and you’ll have a good time.  There is just something about seeing fire works and their beautiful display of color over snow covered ski runs and the mountain that makes a really impressive sight!

New Year’s Eve North Lake Tahoe - Truckee December 31 2016A couple of tips if you’re headed to one of the outdoor events:

  • Dress Warmly – You’ll want to dress warmly and in layers as you’ll be outside and the weather for New Year’s Eve is expected to be in the high teens, possible low 20’s, with snow in the forecast!
  • Be Early, or least On-Time – Early Parking is always a challenge during our peak visit seasons, and during the Christmas – New Year’s holiday period, we’re at capacity, so allow enough time for parking and finding a good spot to watch the show!  Events tend to start on time so be early so you don’t miss anything.
  • Flashlight – Not every place has outdoor lights at night in our area, so just in case bring along a small flashlight that you can use to find your way back to the place you are staying, or your car.

If you want to avoid the crowds and watch the fireworks from your car, find a good spot in the parking lot where you can see the ski resorts.  You’ll have a good view and your own private show.  If you brink lawn chairs you can sit by your car and still have the entire outdoor experience!

Here is the schedule of Free New Year’s Eve events:

2 p.m. – 5 p.m.  Live music – Village Stage by the ice rink n the Northstar Village

Here is a look at the torchlight parade that has happened in Squaw Valley from a couple of years ago:

Tahoe Donner Downhill Ski Resort 

6 p.m. Torchlight Parade and Fireworks – This year there will be a torchlight parade starting at about 6:15 p.m.  If you want to ski in the parade you’ll need to be there starting at around 4:30 p.m.  New this year immediately following there will be a fireworks show, so if you can see the ski mountain you’re going to see the show!

The ski resort is located at 11603 Snowpeak Way, Tahoe Donner, Truckee, CA.

There are many restaurants and bars in the area that will also be having special New Year’s Eve events, but if you’re looking for free entertainment you have plenty of local event options to bring in the new year.

Remember if you drink, don’t drive.  Check out the Tahoe area bus system for their expanded night service for a safe ride home.
