Event locations vary from Tahoe City, Kings Beach, and Incline Village. See the schedule here.

What started as a Tahoe Youth Ballet in 2009 with a single performance has become a company and school that presents a range of performances for Lake Tahoe audiences throughout the year, including its own productions and visiting dance companies.

 The Lake Tahoe Dance Festival is a presentation of the Lake Tahoe Dance Collective, whose mission is to promote classical, modern and contemporary dance of the finest quality in the Lake Tahoe area through performance, education and outreach, enriching the community as a whole and as a cultural destination.

​The festival was started to present the finest professional dance and dance instruction in North Lake Tahoe. The festival is directed by longtime friends and collaborators, Constantine Baecher and Christin Hanna, whose friendship started in 1998 at American Ballet Theatre’s summer program in New York.

​The Lake Tahoe Dance Festival offers three days of main stage performances, audience participatory demonstrations, site-specific installations, meet-the-artists talks and more. The festival celebrates a variety of today’s most exciting working choreographers while preserving beloved classics of the past; including works by George Balanchine, Lester Horton, and Erick Hawkins.
