Tahoe Joy Festival

The Tahoe Joy Festival is a free, one-day benefit music festival showcasing 10 regional bands and student musicians, over 30 local artisan vendors, food and beverage trucks and family-friendly activities hosted by community environmental organizations. The Tahoe Joy Festival raises awareness and funds for local nonprofits with this year’s recipient, the Tahoe Truckee School of Music. Attendees can look forward to a day filled with incredible music, delicious food, and a vibrant community atmosphere. The Tahoe Joy Festival, now in its third-year, is the brainchild of Matt Axton, who was inspired by Axton’s father and musician Hoyt Axton’s biggest hit, “Joy to the World” (‘Jeremiah was a bullfrog’) and it’s message to spread a little more “Joy” in North Lake Tahoe through music. With support from the Tahoe City Public Utilities District and the generosity of North Tahoe Chamber’s TOT-TBID Dollars At Work, the Tahoe Joy Festival remains a free event for all to enjoy.
