There’s Always Fun
to be had in Taos!

Nightlife, Live Music & Events are Everywhere…

Nightlife, Live Music, & Events in the Town of Taos
In the south part of Taos, you can imagine pulling up in a stagecoach from Santa Fe at Sagebrush Inn’s Cantina, featuring live music every day of the week. Heading north on Paseo de Pueblo, just across from Bent Street, take a seat and listen or move and groove at the historic and cozy Adobe Bar at the Historic Taos Inn. Heading to Kit Carson Park or just looking for casually swank place to hang out with friends, The Lounge by Rolling Still Distillery hosts live music and seasonal events. En route to Taos Ski Valley, you’ll want to stop and enjoy the view at DALEEE at KTAOS Solar Center, with activities and/or live music Thursday – Sunday. In the Summer one of the best places to see a show outdoors is at the Taos Mesa Brewing Mothership – but you can can go by to enjoy beer brewed on site on their dog-friendly patio year-round.

Additionally, Taos has a proud history of embracing the arts – and the creative souls that share their talents with us. In addition to our exceptional galleries and museums, there is a thriving live music scene year-round in our scenic high desert. Many venues are all-ages and family friendly, with seasonal patio seating.

Don’t forget to keep an eye out on our Events Calendar for special events, concerts and music in Taos Ski Valley and the Town of Taos! For a full list of events nightly in the Town of Taos, look at the community-sourced, LiveTaos calendar.
