In South Lake Tahoe, sports don’t slow down with the seasons. At 6,224 feet above sea level, athletes compete surrounded by the largest alpine lake in North America, where mountain scenery meets high-performance venues.
At the center of the action is the Tahoe Blue Event Center. Opened in 2023, the state-of-the-art venue gives tournament organizers a flexible home base with a 27,000-square-foot event floor, seating for more than 4,600 spectators, and the ability to convert from an NHL-sized ice rink to basketball, volleyball, cheer, and more.
Outside the arena doors, the South Shore’s walkable Stateline district keeps teams close to the action. More than 4,000 nearby hotel rooms, dining, nightlife, and lakeside experiences sit within a short walk, allowing athletes and fans to move easily from competition to celebration.
The sports lineup extends well beyond the arena. Planners can host events across the region at venues like the brand new South Lake Tahoe Recreation Center, Edgewood Tahoe Golf Course, and multi-field complexes suited for soccer, baseball, and multisport tournaments.
Getting teams here is simple. Reno-Tahoe International Airport offers more than 130 daily flights from 20-plus nonstop destinations, and includes a daily shuttle service to South Lake Tahoe via the South Tahoe Airporter.
