What we know

Friday, December 11 brings house music back to the slopes with Chris Lake. He is joined by Walker & Royce, Noizu, Devault, Cole Knight, Nala and Zaddy B. Last year's lineup leaned heavily toward bass.

On Saturday, December 12, GRiZ plays his first headline show in Northern California since two sold-out nights at the Cow Palace in November 2025. Support comes from TEDDY PAIN, described as T-Pain's new bass alias, plus YDG, Mary Droppinz, HerShe, KHØDA LEON and DJ Unni.

Sunday, December 13 is led by Knock2, who plays bass house and trap. Niteharts also performs, with Madeon, Control Freak, Daniel Allan, WINK x nikko, Klo and BUNS.

Why it matters

According to a press release, the day-by-day split is a deliberate step toward serving fans of all kinds of electronic music. Founder Dustin Esson said the three days are completely different, yet each feels current and distinctly Tahoe Live.

For anyone who only wants one style, single day tickets make the festival easier to plan around. The sale opens this Thursday, November 5 at 10AM PT, and you can find more information at tahoelive.net. Fans can also sign up for a link that is sent as soon as the sale begins, which is handy if you want to pick a specific night before tickets sell out.
