Community Calendar

Encompass Live is a community benefit concert happening Wednesday, August 19th, 2026, from 4 PM–10 PM at AleWorX @ the Y and the Cocktail Corner in South Lake Tahoe.

The event will feature live music, local sponsors, raffles, vendors, food, drinks, and community support while raising awareness and funds for Encompass Youth, a local nonprofit serving children and transitional-age youth ages 12–24 through programs that help build stability, independence, and opportunity.

A gala event with appetizers, exotic silent auction items, quality wines, decadent desserts, live music and more-- will be held Friday, August 21 from 5:00 to 7:30 at the National Automobile Museum.

Sponsored by Peak Pet Urgent Care, this event sends all proceeds directly to the Shakespeare Animal Fund, helping them provide life-saving veterinary care. Gala attendees will champion pets in need with every silent auction bid and ticket purchase ($40 in advance and $45 at the door).

Celebrating the life of a beloved cocker spaniel named Shakespeare, this non-profit was founded in 2004 and has one mission statement: to help pay for emergency veterinary care for anyone who has a suffering or dying pet and can’t afford treatment.

Join fellow animal lovers for a fun event that also includes unique goodie bags for dog owners and an opportunity to mingle with others who help make Northern Nevada a better place to live by taking care of its animals.

About the Event
We're extremely excited to welcome the Red Elvises back to Reno Public Market!
Igor Yuzov's journey spans from Germany to Ukraine to Russia, where his love for forbidden rock'n'roll led him to form the "Folk'n'Roll" band Limpopo. Moving to America, they became Red Elvises, known for their "Siberian Surf Rock" with humorous lyrics that compel audiences to dance.

Over two decades, they've toured globally, starred in films like "Six String Samurai" and "Armageddon," and rocked stages from Live 8 to private parties, always bringing the party with them. They've released 12 studio albums, two live albums, a concert DVD, and a Greatest Hits compilation.
This will be a party you won't want to miss!
