The natural alpine scenery that surrounds Big Bear Lake—from lakeside to the mountaintops—creates stunning backdrops for
events, which explains why so many events are held each year at this mountain resort. Each weekend you can count on something happening in Big Bear Valley, whether it’s the call of brass horns, the cadence of thumping drums, the electric twang of a steel guitar, or harmonious voices of a theatrical chorus line. It might be lively characters in 16th-Century costumes causing a mighty stir, or it could be a troupe of tiny tots dressed in lederhosenand dirndls prancing around to polka music, or perhaps it’s a cowboy posse gathered around a campfire telling original stories, keeping the audience spellbound. One thing for certain is the folks of Big Bear know how to entertain.
Get This Party Started!Just what kind of mood are you in? Whatever it is, you better be ready for some good times, because once the
sun goes down, the fun continues in Big Bear Lake. Maybe you’re in the mood to just lounge around at Big Bear Mountain Brewery with a group of friends to sip a brew and laugh at all the funny things that happened on the slopes; maybe you feel like a game of shuffleboard, ping-pong, or darts at Nottinghams’ upstairs pub. You might want to catch the big game at Diamond Lil’s or just stop by for happy-hour specials. Tiffany’s Lounge at the Best Western Big Bear Chateau provides live music on weekends. There’s always aparty at The Bowling Barn, which offers glow bowling every night, a full-service bar, arcade, and billiards. There’s plenty for the youngsters to do at the Funplex such as laser tag, video games, and a mini rollercoaster. Whatever mood you’re in after the sun goes down, the good folks of Big Bear are certain you’ll have a good time!
