Weekly House by the River events will return this summer, bringing House music and food trucks to downtown Reno.

Hosted by Biggest Little Tribe (BLT) and sponsored in part by the City of Reno, the events will take place every Wednesday from June through August at West Street Plaza from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m.

House by the River will feature House music, a sub-genre of Electronic Dance Music, and offer a selection of food from various food trucks.

The event is open to the public.

“Reno has become a well-regarded stop for house music artists and the community and quality of events continues to grow,” said David Hahn, co-founder of BLT. “Come experience how Reno's local collectives keep the scene moving forward.”

A post on BLT’s Facebook page stated, “House music is alive in Reno! BLT & The City of Reno have partnered to bring outdoor tunes and loving vibes to West Street Plaza downtown on the Truckee River. A local collective will be featured every Wednesday this summer! Beat the heat, let new friendships blossom, and boogie in nature in the Biggest Little City.”

The events are part of the City of Reno’s initiative to activate the downtown corridor with activities such as concerts and movies.

The initiative stems from the Virginia Street Placemaking and Truckee River Studies, which identified that regular events and community gatherings support revitalization in downtown Reno.
