Pops on the River Brings Out Color and Costumes
Perhaps the only event during Artown where the audience outshines what happens on stage is Pops on the River, an unforgettable music experience.

This event takes place at Wingfield Park in downtown Reno along the Truckee River. Lead by Nevada Opera conductor Michael Borowitz, Panara and the Reno Phil cover all the songs Broadway fans have grown to love. Hugh Panaro has been described as "the leader of Broadway's dwindling supply of great leading men." Critically lauded and adored by fans, he demonstrates versatility, charisma, tremendous vocal talent, and, in the words of one former costar, movie star good looks.

Proceeds from Pops on the River help support the Reno Philharmonic Orchestra and the two Youth Orchestras. Gates open for table decorating at 5pm and the performance begins at 8pm.

For more information, call the Reno Philharmonic Guild at 775.323.2030.
