Action in Tahoe: Alabama, Comic Con, Wing Cook Off, Multicultural Celebration and more

Friday, September 13

Alabama

Unleash your inner cowboy during the Alabama concert at the Lake Tahoe Outdoor Arena at Harveys on September 13. Dance the night away under the starry sky.

It’s the kind of story you read about in books and watch on the big screen at the movies. For the band ALABAMA, it’s not just a story, it’s their life. It’s a classic American tale of rags to riches. From humble beginnings picking cotton in the fields, to international stars that went on to sell millions of albums while changing the face and sound of country music.
