Officials provide updates on Sacramento's tourism industry
( — Visit Sacramento hosted its annual State of Tourism event this morning. Tourism officials shared the latest updates on our region's travel and hospitality industry and unveiled an exciting new food event launching this year. Visit Sacramento staff, congress members, airport officials from SMF, and city and county leaders gathered today to share the updates inside the Safe Credit Union Convention Center. 'Now is the moment. We can feel it. Things are happening, and we're going to take this moment and run away with it,' said Congresswoman Doris Matsui. Sacramento's tourism industry made a strong comeback after the COVID-19 pandemic. It's now generating $4 billion annually. Sac State PD looking for arson suspect who fled on foot 'We attract more than 15 million visitors a year. They spend millions of dollars into our economy, and it creates tens of thousands of jobs in Sacramento,' said Mike Testa, Visit Sacramento's President and CEO. In 2024, local businesses brought in $148 million from visitor spending, while other tourism markets across California slumped. Testa says the Sacramento region's wide variety of events and attractions is keeping tourism strong. 'When one industry may be down, like conventions, sports picks it up, or music festivals pick it up.' The local industry continues to grow, even after two significant events, X-Games and Golden Sky, were paused this year. Although Testa says both are expected to return, 'Certainly losing Golden Sky this year isn't a great thing.' Fairfield man indicted for failing to pay over $2 million in employment taxes 'The good news is it's a pause. We expect it to be back in 2026,' said Testa. 'X Games is an event that we had hosted before. While we hate that it's postponed a year, it's still coming back.' Filling the gap left by those events, Visit Sacramento announced a brand new addition: Terra Madre Americas. 'It's the largest food conference in Europe,' Testa explained. 'It attracts 300,000 people from 120 different countries in Torino, Italy. We are bringing that event to Sacramento.' Ed Roehr, Co-Director of Slow Food Sacramento, helped bring the event here. He says Terra Madre will showcase our region's food scene to the world. 'Bringing out producers, makers, and farmers from around the states and America here. Offering interesting perspectives on food and food values. I think it's going to be fantastic,' Roehr said. With other West Coast tourism cities struggling, Sacramento is moving forward thanks to new events and plenty of unique experiences. 'I think Sacramento is in a really good place,' Testa said.

Entertainment permit approved by Sacramento City Council
( — The Sacramento City Council approved a new Limited Entertainment Permit that was created to support the city's nighttime, social and creative economies, according to the City of Sacramento. Video Above: GoldenSky country music festival canceled for 2025 Last Tuesday's approval allows smaller businesses to host events without the weight of costs, applications and requirements applied to larger venues. The initiative was established by the Entertainment Service Division and the Office of Nighttime Economy. 'The new Limited Entertainment Permit is a significant step in supporting Sacramento's creative economy,' said Tina Lee-Vogt, Manager of the Office of Nighttime Economy. 'By simplifying the permitting process, we're making it easier for businesses to host live entertainment while ensuring compliance with the City's noise and occupancy standards. This initiative creates more opportunities for local artists and enhances the city's social vibrancy.' Stockton Police share Your Way Registry during World Autism Awareness Day Businesses with an occupancy of 299 or less, can offer events as a secondary operation, according to officials. Establishments will be able to offer live music that ends as late as 10 p.m. on weekdays and 11 p.m. on weekends. Barriers for venues outside of downtown and midtown will also be reduced, allowing entertainment citywide. The permit comes after the Sociable City Assessment and the Sacramento Music Census shared their need for entertainment that creates growth in the local and music scene. The city council will revisit the permit to establish associated fees. An online permitting process is also being worked on to simplify applications for city staff and applicants. Public meetings will also take place to evaluate sound policies, according to the city. The program is expected to launch in May. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

If You're In The Mood For A Little Treat But Want Someone Else To Find It For You, Here Are 35 You Might Love
We hope you love our recommendations! Some may have been sent as samples, but all were independently selected by our editors. Just FYI, BuzzFeed and its publishing partners may collect a share of sales and/or other compensation from the links on this page. Shopping · This adorable tomato light is about to change the entire vibe of your kitchen. 1. Kuumba Made's $11 Vanilla Bean fragrance roll-on and Golden Sky roll-on — the first is a "true vanilla" that layers with other scents like a dream, whereas Golden Sky is a truly decadent blend of vanilla, rose, and amber that does all the layering for you. These are potent, super long-lasting, and decadently delicious ... hence why TikTok keeps selling them out 😬. Amazon Kuumba Made is a small business that specializes in roll-on scents. Check out a TikTok of the vanilla bean roll-on in action. Promising review (for Vanilla Bean): "Buy it now. I love the smell of this, it's a true vanilla scent, super strong, and I got soooo many compliments. I had no leaks. Feels great on the skin. Not super floral, a perfect vanilla. Totally worth the money." — Kc Promising review (for Golden Sky): " The scent is absolutely divine — sweet, warm, and rich without being overly overpowering. It's the perfect vanilla fragrance that feels both cozy and elegant. I love how natural and smooth it smells, with no artificial or overly sugary notes." — Tamara Jones Get it from Amazon: Vanilla Bean for $9.97 and Golden Sky for $10.99. 2. E.l.f.'s Hydrating Core Lip Shine in the "Ecstatic" shade, which reviewers say captures the same magic as " Black Honey," the $25 ~universal shade~ from Clinique that's blowing up on TikTok at a fraction of the price. It doesn't shift colors as magically as the other version, but it's a perfect, non-sticky "go-to" lip to keep in all your favorite bags and haunts. I personally will live, breathe, and die by the magic of $25 "universal" Black Honey version — it lasts FOREVER and also functions as the perfect blush — but it sells out so often that I am also deeply relieved to know it has a cheap alternative in case of lip emergency! Promising review: "I absolutely love this product. The dark color is perfectly sheer. It also adds the most beautiful color to your lips. I am a Clinique Black Honey lip fan, and this gives me the same look for a fraction of the cost. I love it and have multiple that I keep in various spots. Not sticky either, which is my biggest gripe about lip glosses. My hair doesn't get stuck in this like some glosses, but I get the shine." — Hamps5 Get it from Amazon for $7 (also available in eight other shades). 3. A set of hair tie bracelets designed to look like *actual* jewelry, so you won't be kicking yourself when you realize you left a hair tie on your wrist for every photo. Amazon Promising review:"I love these! These add the cutest touch to any outfit. They make you feel better about wearing a hair tie on your wrist. And they function great as both a hair tie and a bracelet! Not too tight to wear as either. Love them!" — Tiara Scheurell Get a set of 20 from Amazon for $7.99 (available in nine styles). 4. Olay Super Serum Body Wash that will make anyone with dry or dull cold weather skin REJOICE — this is packed with niacinamide, shea butter, and collagen peptides to nourish your skin for 24-hour hydration that will make you feel ~luminous~. (Psst — this is the body wash version of their TikTok-famous, super effective facial Super Serum, so you KNOW they mean business.) Amazon Promising review:"I recently tried the Olay Super Serum Body Wash, and I am absolutely in love with it! The formula is incredibly hydrating, leaving my skin feeling soft and smooth after every use. It lathers beautifully and has a lovely, light fragrance that isn't overpowering. After just a few uses, I noticed my skin looked more radiant and felt deeply moisturized. The addition of serums in the body wash is a game-changer. My skin feels nourished, and I no longer need to apply lotion right after showering. Highly recommend this to anyone looking for a luxurious, skin-loving body wash!" — Darina Get it from Amazon for $12.97. 5. A lil' polar bear hydrating eye stick for some sweet, sweet relief when you wake up with puffy, aching eyes. This formula is blended with Iceland glacial water to help tighten skin and tackle dark circles so you look and feel more ~refreshed~. Promising review:"I have always had serious dark circles and bags under my eyes and this has really changed this for me. The results are incredible. The puffiness is gone. The dark circles are hardly noticeable. My sensitive skin has not broken out. I never write reviews, but this was so good that I had to write a review. This actually works." — Ben Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (available in six styles). 6. A simple faux diamond tennis bracelet to add a touch of sophistication to any outfit without the price of name-brand versions like Swarovski (even though reviewers agree this looks like the Real Deal 👀). Promising review: "Soooo pretty. It's 100% [similar to] Swarovski for so cheap. Looks exactly like the photo and I wear it every day." — Trysten Walters For what it's worth, Pavoi — the company behind this piece — has gone TikTok viral time and time again for its classic, modern, and expensive-looking pieces. I personally own almost all my "daily wear" jewelry from Pavoi and swear by it. Everything is so easy to accessorize and makes my outfits look and feel so much more put together, and the pieces are so durable that they're easily worth twice what I paid. Check out the rest of Pavoi's line of jewelry for more options, including earrings, bracelets, and anklets! Get it from Amazon for $17.95+ (available in four colors, two styles, and three sizes). 7. E.l.f's Lash XTNDR Tubing Mascara, a GODSEND for anyone with thin or fragile lashes. This uses lightweight ~tubing~ technology to wrap around lashes and give them a natural-looking, smudge-proof extension so good it almost looks fake. The real boon, though, is how easily the "tubes" slide off in clean, easy swipes at the end of the day when you're washing your face — absolutely no smudging, over-scrubbing, or special eye makeup removal products required. Check out a TikTok of the E.l.f. tubing mascara in action. I am not a new human to the tubing mascara game, and in fact readily spent $26 on the famous OG blend from Blinc every time it needed replacing. I didn't even love it for the length half as much as the fact that tubing mascara like this genuinely never smudges, but can I just say — regardless of price, the E.l.f. tubing mascara formula blows all the others I've tried out of the water. It gives me way more length and volume than other brands, slides on so much more easily, stays put ALL day, and never, ever smudges. My favorite part, though, is how gently and easily it comes off with soap and water. In the past, other mascara removals have felt rough on my lashes, but this comes off so fast that I'm like ??? was I even wearing mascara a minute ago?? Anyway, I hesitate even writing this review because I want to gatekeep the hell out of this before it sells out, but the world needed to know. I'm a big fan of the brown shade (which is what I'm wearing above!), but it also comes in black and soft black. Get it from Amazon for $7 (available in three shades). 8. A three-pack of vintage-inspired polarized sunglasses for anyone who needs to stock up on a few "these look like Ray-Bans, but I won't cry into my Baja Blast if I accidentally leave them in the Taco Bell parking lot" pairs this year. These are especially handy because you can match the subtle prints to whatever 'fit you're wearing! Promising review:"I've been buying these for years. They replaced my Ray-Bans that look identical! Fit great and with the price point I don't have to worry too much with my kids and being on the go!" — Jessica M Get a pack of three from Amazon for $15.99+ (clip the 20% off coupon on the product page for this price; available in 16 sets, as well as two-packs and individual pairs). 9. A vintage-style teddy mug so un-bear-ably cute that after you sip your coffee in it, you'll spend the whole day vibing like Paddington with a big smile on your face. Promising review: "Cutest mug I own. It looks exactly like the photo and it's adorable. I love it!" — Cheyenne Get it from Amazon for $12.74. 10. A set of delightfully ~~tingly~~ self-heating soothing foot masks made with Epsom salts, lavender, and peppermint perfect for anyone whose recent step count is "too many." Nothing like a lil' self-care on those aching feet to lift your spirits! Check out a TikTok of the foot masks in action. I'm a long-ish distance runner, and these were certainly an interesting experience for my feet! You slide them on and, after a few minutes, feel a tingling, mildly burning (in a good way) sensation. It doesn't quite numb your feet, but it relaxes them. I kept them on for 30 minutes and then toweled my feet off, and the tingling sensation slowly faded over the next 30 minutes. After that, my feet felt very refreshed and relaxed at a time of day when they're usually aching from all the miles I put in. The whole thing was a mess-free, easy process, and I will definitely keep them on hand for longer run days! Promising review:"Very soothing. My husband and l used these on our European vacation, and they definitely felt good on our feet!" — KS2018 Get a set of three pairs from Amazon for $10.77. 11. A NeeDoh "Dream Drop," a newer release from the *elite* Needoh sensory fidget toy line for anyone who wants to add more calm and focus to their day. This goo-filled, delightfully colorful fidget has a satisfying squish with a "slow rise" before going back to its original shape. Reviewers also love that it doesn't have the kind of stickiness that picks up debris and makes it hard to clean. Schylling is a small business that specializes in modern and retro toys, games, and sets. Check out a TikTok of the Dream Drop in action. Promising review: "Great, and I love that it has a tray to sit on. I love how firm this is to squeeze, and the slow release is really relaxing. The included dish is a great touch — it keeps it clean and gives it a dedicated spot to rest." — AZMOM Get it from Amazon for $7.20+ (the color is either blue, pink, or purple and gets selected for you at random; available in three styles)! Check out the rest of the Needoh fidget toy options on their Amazon storefront! 12. Glossmetics' Lychee Overnight Lip Mask, a Laneige or Tatcha alternative that's already a cult-fave in the making — you can wear this non-stick, ultra glossy lip shine during the day or overnight as a lip treatment to help hydrate, soften, and condition your lips. Not to mention you will taste *delectable* all day and night (just ask the many lychee martinis I have downed on this here earth!). Promising review:"I'm obsessed with lip products. I have tried everything you can imagine, inexpensive and expensive. This is my favorite lip product I've purchased. This gloss is incredible, perfectly moisturizing, and the color is so perfect, a very light natural glowy pink. I just came on Amazon to order a couple more to have one in the car, my purse, nightstand." — Tara Bills Get it from Amazon for $7.99 (available in three flavors). 13. A set of ridiculously chic gold-plated huggie earrings in styles that are alternately sophisticated and cheeky, so you'll have the perfect pair to match the vibe of any 'fit. Amazon Promising review:"I've had these earrings in consistently for about two months. My ears are very sensitive and I was looking for a cheaper option earring that would still work. These have been great so far. No issues as all. They look nice and I love that they are easy to sleep in. Great value for the cost. Lightweight and have had no issue with the clasp staying closed." — Amazoncustomer2002 Get a set of six from Amazon for $10.23 (available in four styles, including silver options). 14. Murdle, Volume 1, a true essential for anyone who relaxes to true crime podcasts or Only Murders in the Building. The book is full of 100 mystery-themed logic puzzles with four different levels of difficulty that they can do solo or with pals, and in order or out of order (although if they do it in order, they get the full scoop on Deductive Logico and Inspector Irratino, whose hilarious misadventures guide you through the book). Check out a TikTok of Murdle in action. The best part?? Once you finish "Murdling," you can use your sleuthing skills on Volume 2, Volume 3, and a whole BUNCH of other themed Murdle books! Promising review: "The puzzles are a lot of fun but the characters, story lines, and other details take the Murdle experience to another level. I have no idea how the author came up with all of this creativeness! You can Murdle solo or with friends. I look forward to future volumes but this one will keep me busy for awhile!" — Liz Gately Get it from Amazon for $10.25. 15. Aveeno Daily Moisturizing Body Mist Oil for an *instant* and long-lasting dry skin fix — this blend of vitamin E and jojoba oil is designed to moisturize, soothe, and restore skin, and do it REAL quick and easy for those of us who don't have time for a whole song and dance of a body moisturizing routine. Promising review: "I'm terrible about putting on lotion even though my skin is dry. I just hate it. But I love this stuff. It makes my skin feel great. Has a light pleasant scen t. Spray it on and rub it in. So easy! I just apply when going to bed or at least when I don't have to put anything other than lounge clothes on right away. My skin looks and feels so much better it makes me want to keep using it." — Slade Get it from Amazon for $9.58. 16. A copy of Burn After Writing, a guided journal that tens of thousands of reviewers swear by — through a series of questions and thought experiments, it encourages people to take time away from their screens to explore their feelings, both new and old, so they can embrace meaningful ones and try to let others go. Promising review: "I first saw this book on TikTok and decided to look more into it. I purchased four total because I know some people holding onto things that are difficult to let go of. It's a great way to look at things from a different perspective and truly hold yourself accountable to different things in your life. I love what it stands for, and I look forward to when I burn mine after I'm done. Self-love, self-care, and meditation for a better state of mind tomorrow are always the goal. I definitely recommend it to those susceptible to change and the willingness to try things differently." — Brent Helm Get it from Amazon for $7.70. 17. A little tomato light reviewers love to cozify their kitchen space. Is it a fruit? Is it a vegetable?? Whomst can say, but whatever it is, it's adorable. Promising review:"I was going to buy the $80 one from UO, and decided to look for cheaper alternatives. I'm really happy with this lamp!

You can physically see the sebaceous filaments come out of your pores, it is not the product bunching up. My problem areas were so much smoother after using and are left with a moisturized glow. I then proceeded to have my boyfriend use this product to see of it worked this good on everyone on the first try and it worked on his nose as well. Amazing stuff. 🩷" — Losa "I have hyperpigmentation and oily skin. I feel this product regulates my oil production and it helps my makeup look so flawless. 10/10." — MissKayMae Get it from Amazon for $13.95 (available in two sizes). 19.

The quality of the paper is great, holding up well to colored pencils, markers, and gel pens. I love how each page feels like a little escape, and coloring them has become a therapeutic routine." — Ali El-Khatib Get it from Amazon for $7.99. 20. Nuts 'N More's Chocolate Maple Pretzel Peanut Butter Spread, which just put so many beautiful words in such a small space that I am salivating just TYPING them.

Catrice's Magic Shaper Face Cream Palette as an $8 alternative to the $88 (!!) Makeup Forever Palette. This includes a range of highly-pigmented, super blendable shades to help you contour, highlight, and bronze on days when your Gcal just say "GO GO GO" all the way down. (Psst — this is the same brand behind the TikTok-famous $6 Under Eye Brightener, so you know they mean business!) Amazon Check out a TikTok of the Magic Shaper Face Cream Palette in action. Promising review:"I love this palette. The blush is so pigmented and so are the bronzers. Good travel size. I am a professional makeup artist who travels weekly and it's easy to throw into my touch up kit for backstage too, as it doesn't take up much room and is very light." — Deja Victoria Seif Get it from Amazon for $8. 24. A pack of Skittles flavor enhancers for anyone who heard the slogan "Taste the rainbow" and said "BET ️🌈 😎." Promising reviews:"Adding Skittles flavor packets to my water has increased my daily water intake.

Highly recommend as a fun gift to adults and kids." — Katie A. Get it from Amazon for $9.59. 26. An oh-so-sweet 1000-piece macaron puzzle for anyone with a sweet tooth *and* a sweet brain. This one might be a toughie with all the similar colors in the pattern, but the satisfaction you'll get when you finish it is simply delicious. Promising review:"I liked this puzzle, but it is a challenge. I had to work out a system and saved all the pink, red, lavender, purple pieces for last. You'll also need to check the picture on the box fairly often. But stick with it. It's fun." — Pioneer Woman Get it from Amazon for $9.99. 27. The Ordinary's Multi-Depth Hydration Serum to achieve that "glassy," plumped effect *without* breaking the whole bank. This delightfully affordable, super effective serum helps hydrate and protect your skin barrier so you wake up with firm, refreshed skin. Promising review:"Makes skin very glowy and elastic! I love to use The Ordinary for my skincare. I have tried several of their products, and the best things I like about them is their affordable prices and quality. This serum is thick but lightweight and absorbs fairly quickly while leaving a smooth layer on top. I use it every night before bed, and I wake up every morning with my skin feeling super soft, hydrated, and plump. This has been great for combating dry skin in the winter, and to fix my skin barrier after using exfoliating products and other harsher products. Definitely would recommend, it gives you glassy skin that you will love!" — Rina Get it from Amazon for $9.90. 28. A book of Taylor Swift-themed Mad Libs designed with fans in mind, so you can do your next Eras tour rewatch with a side of UNCONTROLLABLE giggling. Amazon, This is also kid-friendly, with reviewers mentioning gifting it to kids ages eight and up! Promising review: "You will get much more out of this than what you paid for. Really well done and fun, even if some players aren't Swifties." — J. Hayes Get it from Amazon for $4.78. 29. A Frenchie-themed cheese board for some top notch char-woof-erie at your next party.

The Game of Life Goals, the card game version of the OG beloved (if not very stressful) Game of Life board. This version rubs a little TOO close to your existential fright with the tagline "You can't control the card you're dealt, but you can choose what to do with them!" (Or you can just cope by turning off autonomy on The Sims, you do you.) Amazon, This game requires two to four players, ages 8 and up. Promising review: "We love this game. All the kids are adults and we have a raucous time playing this. it is so much fun; great family fun. The pace is fantastic. Anytime we have a friend over, the first game goes a little slower but it doesn't take long to learn and develop strategies to win. Love this game!!!" — Kindle Customer Get it from Amazon for $5.19. 31. A set of pastel glitter highlighters I saw on Instagram recently and NEARLY BLACKED OUT from the cuteness.

Check out a TikTok of the highlighters in action. Promising review:"These are amazing!!! Beautiful colors and the sparkle/shimmer is more than I imagined it would be. Mr Pen did it again! If you don't have these pens, you need to get them!! Great addition to my journaling supplies!" — FBJH12 Get a set of eight from Amazon for $6.99 (available in four color sets). 32. And a ballpoint pen oil diffuser that emits a calming scent as you write with it, which may just be the key to stopping all the "adkfjgalkdgjal" in your brain when you're trying to study or write extensive to-do lists. (According to Johns Hopkins, you may want to avoid diffusing oils around larger groups and young children because of the side effects of different oils. You may also want to avoid using an oil diffuser around pets with breathing problems, according to the ASPCA.) Promising review: "This pen is so nice to hold. It writes so smoothly and has an easy function of just twisting it to reveal the point of the pen. Now, let's get to the good part of why I even bought this. The smell! It smells really good, and I cannot wait to get different scents when money becomes available again. My thoughts when buying this were I remember things by smell and rewriting things. I am currently in college,e so having a nice pen as well as a scent is amazing for me." — Katherine Timbrook Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (available in three scents and multipacks). 33. A shaker of Thin Mint seasoning you need to buy as a favor to all your taste buds immediately. Allow me to paint a picture for you: Thin Mint coffee, Thin Mint pudding, Thin Mint popcorn, Thin Mint anything your dessert gremlin heart desires. Emma Lord/BuzzFeed Check out a TikTok of the Thin Mint Seasoning in action. I stared at this for months online before caving and buying it, and when I tell you!! It jazzes up my morning coffee in a way that makes my little '90s baby heart sing. I've also loved it on Greek yogurt, oatmeal, and mug cakes. Plus, when I am feeling lonely for a real Thin Mint, and we're not in Girl Scout cookie season, I'll shake this on an Oreo Thin to stave off the despair. Get it from Amazon for $5.99 (and try their s'mores seasoning blend, too!). 34. A set of Slop Tart sponges to make every Pop-Tart-loving '90s baby love doing the dishes so much that they'll start fighting over who gets to do them.

My Cinderfella loved them." — queen k Get a set of four from Amazon for $9.99. 35. A set of espresso martini mix packets that make this cocktail staple a little TOO easy to recreate at home — all you need to do is add vodka (or tequila!) and water, and BOOM. That's that you espresso. (Bonus: these only have 30mg of caffeine, as opposed to 60mg to 120mg of a typical one!) Amazon, Craftmix is a small business that specializes in instant drink mixers. Promising review:"The closest thing to creating a drink from scratch as you can get! Tried the variety pack and the espresso martini mix, and it was a hit with folks, and most couldn't believe it when I told them it came from a packet. Especially if you're thinking of hosting or making drinks in batches, Craftmix is a real timesaver. Would definitely recommend and plan on repurchasing for future get-togethers!" — Kenneth Walfred Fojas Get a pack of 12 from Amazon for $16.99 (available in 13 other flavors and a variety pack).
