STATELINE, Nev. –  The Tahoe Chamber’s Go Local Business Expo returned to the Tahoe Blue Event Center on Thursday, May 7, bringing together a record number of businesses and attendees for an evening celebrating local commerce, connection, and community. 

As Lake Tahoe’s signature business and community event, the Go Local Business Expo brought together residents, visitors, entrepreneurs, nonprofits, and industry leaders for an energetic evening centered around connection, discovery, and celebrating the organizations that help drive the local economy. 

 Attendees experienced interactive vendor experiences, meaningful networking opportunities, local food and beverage offerings, and family-friendly activities; all created to showcase the value of supporting local companies while strengthening community connections throughout the South Shore. 

 “The Go Local Business Expo was such an exciting evening because it brought together not only our local businesses, but also community members who came out to connect, enjoy, and celebrate everything that makes Tahoe special,” said Jessica Grime, Tahoe Chamber CEO. “Throughout the night, attendees networked with vendors, sampled incredible food and beverages, discovered local services, and genuinely enjoyed time together. The Expo is more than an opportunity to learn about businesses; it’s a community event that brings people together to support local and celebrate the spirit of Tahoe.” 

This year’s event also aligned with the Tahoe Economic Summit, hosted by the Tahoe Prosperity Center, creating one dynamic day focused on economic development, collaboration, networking, and community engagement. 

 The Tahoe Chamber extends its heartfelt thanks to the 2026 Go Local Business Expo sponsors: Barton Health, Edgewood Tahoe Resort, Golden Nugget Lake Tahoe, Clearly Tahoe, Dollar Signs & Graphics, and Luna Lending,  along with the vendors, volunteers, partners, and attendees whose support and participation helped make the event such a tremendous success. 

Planning is already underway for next year’s event, with continued opportunities for local businesses to engage, connect, and grow through Tahoe Chamber programming.
