Despite being in the middle of the desert, Reno offers some great opportunities for water recreation. The Tahoe Whitewater Tours is conveniently located near the bustling downtown hotel-casino and booming arts district. Lots of places to play including 11 pools for kayak fun, a kayak racing course and lots more.
The Reno Philharmonic invites you to get your culture on! Not only does the orchestra regularly perform master classics on stage, the organization realizes the importance of preserving the work of the composers whose music they lovingly recreate. The Reno Philharmonic also prides itself in fostering a love of music in the area's youth so that the legacy of the classics can continue. Performances are scheduled regularly, so instead of the usual evening, make plans to experience true music masterpieces as only the classic Reno Philharmonic can perform them.
