Things to Do in South Lake Tahoe

A combination of live theater, high-end lounge and tapas-style dining, The Loft Theatre Magic & Comedy Theatre offers the full package for a fun night out. The nightly entertainment includes world-class comedy magicians performing in an intimate 107-seat, stadium-style theater. The lineup of performances includes a full slate of all-ages, family-friendly shows as well as a more limited selection of adult-oriented offerings. In addition to entertainment, The Loft Theatre's restaurant, TASTE at The Loft, features a vibrant mix of small plates and American tapas meant to be shared with your dining companions. The menu and acts change frequently, making the destination fun to visit multiple times a year. The Loft Lounge is a late-night hotspot in Heavenly Village.

The Tahoe Symphony Orchestra is on a mission to raise awareness and appreciation of classical orchestral and choral music in the greater Reno-Tahoe area by bringing quality, affordable live performances to intimate, local venues and providing an opportunity for accomplished, Tahoe-area musicians to display and develop their talents. Founded in 2005 as a 501(c)3 nonprofit musical arts organization, the Tahoe Symphony has a worldwide footprint, having performed shows around the globe, including Italy, Salzburg-Prague, Slovakia/Hungary, southern France and more. Those younger than age 23 always get in free, and a senior’s discount is available for all shows. Tickets are available online.

Year-round, indoor links is what The Golf Lodge in Carson City is all about. There's no need to travel to a golf course, as more than 330 are available in this one location. This is all through the Trackman golf simulator, which will have you swinging a club on iconic golf courses like Pebble Beach. Mini golf options are available for youngsters or the less serious golfers. Four bays make it convenient for individuals or groups. If you need some help with your game, instructors are available. Finish a round by relaxing at hole 19, which is much like a country club setting with a full bar. The outdoor patio beckons people to relax. A bonus to becoming a member is 24/7 key card access. This is also a great place for private parties and corporate events. The Gold Lodge is in Carson City, which is less than an hour's drive from the Lake Tahoe communities of Incline Village and South Lake Tahoe.
