Welcome to Lovelock, NV. where friends, family and lovers come to forever lock their love. In 2006 Lovelock adopted the ancient Chinese custom of symbolically locking ones love on a never ending chain. It is said that love will endure as long as the lock remains on the chain.
No one knows how or when this ancient Chinese custom began, but the lock-laden chains, common in the Yellow Mountains and at the Great Wall of China, have begun to appear elsewhere in the world. Thousands of simple metal locks adorn chains and fences, placed with care by those who wish to symbolize their enduring love.
Love Locks are avaliable at several locations in town, look for the Lovers Lock signs.
The Lovers Aloft Hot Air Balloon event takes place each year around Valentine's Day.
