SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, Calif. – MountainHouse Church in South Lake Tahoe is serving as a host of the 2025 Night to Shine on Friday, February 7 from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. at the Tahoe Blue Event Center. Night to Shine is an evening for people with special needs and is hosted by churches around the world on the Friday before Valentine’s Day to give them a night to remember.
Each event is unique to its location, but some cornerstone activities included across all of them are a red carpet entrance complete with a warm welcome from a friendly crowd and paparazzi, hair and makeup stations, shoeshines, limousine rides, karaoke, gifts, a catered dinner, a Sensory Room, a Respite Room for parents and caregivers, dancing, and a crowning ceremony where every guest is honored as a King or Queen – the way God sees them each and every day.
This event is sponsored by the Tim Tebow Foundation. When Tebow announced he was one of the owners of the Tahoe Knight Monsters he also announced Night to Shine would be coming to South Lake Tahoe.
“Night to Shine is my favorite night of the year! It’s my favorite because we get to celebrate so many Kings and Queens and share how much they are loved by us and by the God of this universe. Our goal is to be able to get to every person with special needs around the world – until all are celebrated. No matter what city, no matter what country, no matter where you are, we want Night to Shine to be there.” said Tebow, founder of the Tim Tebow Foundation.
Access Tahoe is also proudly supporting this event as a grassroots community dedicated to creating Access in Tahoe for All.
As sponsor of Night to Shine, the Tim Tebow Foundation provides each host church with the official 2025 Night to Shine Planning Manual, personalized guidance and support from a Tim Tebow Foundation staff member, the opportunity to apply for a financial grant, and access to planning resources that will assist them in creating an unforgettable experience for their honored guests. The foundation also provides access to ongoing disability ministry resources through Shine On. Shine On, a ministry of the Tim Tebow Foundation, is a faith-based community – a source of inspiration, belonging, and education for everyone impacted by disability. Shine On envisions a global community of churches and families that foster belonging and purpose for all.
