Music on the Beach Summer Concert Series
May 22 - Sep 11, 2026 | 5PM - 9PM
Ski Beach
Incline’s beloved Music on the Beach concert series will move to a new temporary location next door at Ski Beach for 2026. While IVGID has taken over management of the concert series, the District has contracted with Mitch Harbaugh – who has been running the Music on the Beach concerts for 10+ years – to book the bands and emcee the events for us, so concertgoers should expect the same good vibes and great tunes they’ve come to expect in years past.
Note: Ski Beach, where this event series takes place, is one of the four restricted-access beaches within Incline Village, which are for the use of IVGID Recreation Pass (aka Picture Pass) and Recreation Punch Card holders (with beach access), and their guests. Please review the access rules & restrictions for IVGID-managed beaches here.
