You step out onto a crisp downtown sidewalk, phone in hand, searching for the next gleam of holiday lights and the perfect cheeky photo prompt. The Truckee River threads the city nearby, its current pushing the reflective decorations and setting a brisk tempo for teams weaving through streets, plazas and neighborhoods.
Reno’s grid grew around the railroad and mining booms of the 19th century, then reinvented itself through gaming and arts districts. That history shows in brick facades, neon, and the rebuilt waterfront. Geologically, the city sits at the eastern edge of the Sierra Nevada’s rain shadow—clear winter air and occasional dustings of snow shape moods and outfits during the season.
The Holly Jolly Hunt uses an app to direct you to holiday-themed items and silly tasks: take a team selfie with a specific display, identify a quirky window scene, or record a short holiday jingle. It’s social, fast-paced, and family-friendly—best for mixed-age groups who like playful competition.
Practicalities are simple: the game runs about an hour, is self-guided, and begins from a recommended downtown meeting spot delivered by message. Expect 1–2 miles of walking on sidewalks and paved paths, light interaction with public spaces, and brief stops for photos. Bring a charged phone, comfortable shoes, and weather layers; plan early-morning or early-evening slots to catch lights without peak crowds. The experience blends urban exploration with seasonal cheer—an easy, low-impact way to see Reno through a festive lens.
Bookings are for a private group; the app supports small to medium teams—check provider limits when reserving.
