Reasons Why Meeting Profs Love Reno-Tahoe

Budget-friendly options. With roots going back to the Silver Rush, gaming spurred development in “The Biggest Little Town,” and even as downtown Reno is going through a cultural and artistic rebirth, prices have remained affordable. The average room rate is $145.

Big fun. Venues such as National Bowling Stadium (the Taj Mahal of Tenpins) make team building impactful with play for every skill level and a built-in celebratory mood. Reno Events Center and Reno-Sparks Livestock Events Center boast their own event space and authentic vibe.

Second Silicon Valley. Reno is quickly rising as a technology and AI hub as 2,000 companies have opened operations in reach of Tahoe Reno Industrial Center, including Apple, Tesla, Google and Posatron AI. Data centers thrive in the low-tax, California-adjacent, infrastructure-optimized environment, so finding experts and venues trained in supporting secure gatherings is easy.

Incline Village. Forty scenic minutes from Reno is one of the most beautiful spots on the planet. Incline Village on Lake Tahoe is home to Mark Zuckerberg, Larry Ellison and Aaron Rodgers. Hyatt Regency Lake Tahoe Resort, Spa and Casino, a 1920s grand lodge-style property with a modern edge, is renovating Lakeside Ballroom to further enhance the experience in the beachfront location.

Stateline. Where Nevada meets California on Tahoe’s South Shore, a bounty of elevated meeting options offer event space that meets attendees where they are. This includes Margaritaville Resort Lake Tahoe in the former Embassy Suites space at the foot of Heavenly Mountain Resort gondola.
