Reno’s premier artistic and cultural hub, mural-covered MidTown Reno bustles with more than 150 locally owned businesses—including coffee shops, tattoo parlors, book stores, cute boutiques and vintage shops, and some of Reno’s most celebrated bars and bistros, with no national chains in sight. Located just a few blocks south of the Truckee River, make Reno’s MidTown District part of all your Biggest Little City discoveries.
Reno’s hippest district is full of funky boutiques, vintage shops, swanky bistros, and cocktail havens, as well as plenty of rockin’ music venues, beer halls, tattoo parlors, and ever-changing murals adorning nearly every brick.
MidTown Reno is generally considered to be between Liberty Street to the north and Plumb Lane to the south, bordered by Plumas Street to the west and Holcomb Avenue to the east.
The Changing Face of Reno MidTown
MidTown Reno offers accessible public transit, strollable sidewalks, expanded lighting for evening (or late-night) revelry, and more space for annual events, like the Midtown Art Walk, Artown, and many others that bring the community together in this funky little part of town.
This formerly “gritty” portion of town turned a new leaf after a series of local visionaries breathed life into mid-century brick buildings, transforming this neighborhood into Reno’s premier arts and culture district. Instead of tearing down an old, unused section of town, this ambitious collection of artists and small business owners transformed the neighborhood with an artisan approach.
But it’s not just local business owners who helped make this cultural shift a success. Discover more than 80 mural-coated businesses, sculptures, and rehomed Burning Man art that color local hotspots hosting live music, theatre, and more.
