Shaquille O’Neal – aka DJ DIESEL – will be one of the featured musical artists when Tahoe Live takes place Dec. 12-14 at Palisades Tahoe.
Tahoe Live is back and event organizers say it will be “bigger than ever.” Expanding to three days for the first time, the 2025 festival returns to Palisades Tahoe with another electrifying lineup.
With entertaining electronic music, snow-covered peaks for skiers and snowboarders, and the unique energy of a mountain rave, Tahoe Live continues its tradition of presenting a winter music experience.
This year’s lineup features a dynamic range of artists at the forefront of electronic music. Headliners include Grammy-nominated producer Porter Robinson, acclaimed Canadian duo Zeds Dead, multi-platinum artist Alison Wonderland, and DJ Diesel, the bass-driven project of the NBA Hall of Famer who typically is identified simply as Shaq.
Also featured is LSZEE, the collaborative project from LSDREAM and CloZee, alongside standout acts like San Holo, Jessica Audiffred, Peekaboo and more.
“As we continue to grow Tahoe Live, this year’s expansion to three days marks a turning point,” says Dustin Esson, founder of LIVE. “We’ve built something special here, where the rave community, dance fans, and winter sports culture all collide in one breathtaking location.”
As the only electronic music festival in the U.S. held on the grounds of a ski resort, Tahoe Live offers a unique combination of music, snow, and the scenic beauty of Palisades Tahoe. The event continues to grow while maintaining its boutique, single-stage format, allowing fans to experience every performance without overlap.
Drawing more than 15,000 attendees to the slopes in the past over two days, Tahoe Live is a distinctive blend of world-class music, alpine scenery, and premium production. The festival has quickly established itself as one of the country’s most sought-after winter music experiences.
“Our goal has always been to deliver more than just a show – it’s about the whole experience,” Esson said. “This year’s lineup is our biggest yet, with legends like Zeds Dead and Porter Robinson leading the way, plus DJ Diesel making a special appearance. Tahoe Live isn’t just a festival anymore, it’s become something people really look forward to and love each winter.”
