Hey OffBeat Fam!! PSA for wristband pickups. 📣

Starting tomorrow, you are able to pick up your wristbands in the parking lot of Black Rabbit. You’ll find us at the tent waiting for you!

Pro tip: Skip the lines and the closed-street parking stresses and come tomorrow for early wristband pickup.

🏔️ A lot of what makes OffBeat special is where it happens: the region we call home aka Reno Tahoe!

From painted desert peaks to alpine lake shores, Reno Tahoe delivers a plethora of adventure to scratch the thrill-seeker’s itch. Cultural flairs are embraced through special events, unique food, and outdoor recreation outlets. Whether seeking rugged beauty or refined caches, Reno Tahoe is a haven for leisure travel and entertainment.

Visiting for OffBeat? Follow Reno Tahoe and hit up their website at VisitRenoTahoe.com for insider tips on making the most of your weekend — and beyond. We can’t wait to see you explore what we have to offer! ✨

Hey there party people!! We have an update to our previous update 😅

Good news is the road construction on Virginia will no longer affect us and we will proceed business as usual!

Meaning, the stage and dancing will proceed under our beautiful Reno Arch and secondly, the start times have been pushed back to normal. So, still come at 6pm to hang, enjoy our KWNK friends, and grab food/drinks, but remember music starts at 7pm.

We’re sorry for the back and forth, but happy to be back on track!

And finally, as our token of appreciation to you and your support to OffBeat Music Society and our partnership with the City of Reno this summer, we've got an Off the Rails exclusive: $20 off your OffBeat Music Fest 2-Day GA ticket, available at the event only. Cheers!

📍 Locomotion Plaza, 301 N Virginia St | Under the Reno Arch
