STATELINE, Nev. - Construction on the new Tahoe South Events Center will resume on Monday, May 3, 2021, after the seasonal halt of activity on the site in the parking lot of MontBleu Resort Casino & Spa. New construction fences are up in preparation for excavation, concrete, and foundation work. Completion is anticipated by the end of 2022. The 132,000 square-foot, multi-purpose facility is designed to complement the destination’s gaming and recreational offerings. The project broke ground in July 2020 along the U.S. Highway 50 border. It will provide a venue for conventions, special events, and entertainment, as well as a variety of events for the local South Shore community, including concerts, and family programming, as well as professional and amateur sporting events. The events center is expected to host up to 130 events a year with opportunities to expand visitation into shoulder seasons and mid-week periods. The anticipated economic impact to the entire community is estimated to be $40-60 million per year.
