Considered one of North America’s best ski resorts, Palisades Tahoe is known for its vibrant ski culture. It was host to the 1960 Winter Games, and has been home to an incredible list of music festivals over the years including Bill Graham’s iconic Summer Music Festival with the Jerry Garcia Band in 1991. Music lovers will also know it as the modern-day home to the WinterWonderGrass Festival. When driving into Palisades, it’s impossible not to be stunned by the view of Tram Face, the imposing rock cliff below the Aerial Tram, and the jagged snow-covered peaks that shoot up in every direction. Higher on the mountain, a sparkling Lake Tahoe splays out before you, a view Mark Twain once described as “the fairest picture the whole earth affords.”
Like all festivals in the Good Vibez canon, festival goers can expect exciting programming both on and off stage including local food vendors, interactive local art displays, a quirky and quality vendor area, and a commitment to leaving the community better than they found it with composting, recycling, and greening initiatives which work towards zero waste.
“We love working in the High Sierra,” says Amy Sheehan, co-founder of Good Vibez. “Being a destination for outdoor lovers and music fans alike, we feel a real synergy when working here. I find that a lot of our patrons come for the music and end up staying a few days for the hiking, dining, and general exploring that the majestic High Sierra range has to offer.”
