California Cruise-In updates

Huntington Beach event T-Shirts arrive at Factory Five

 

We’re so excited to host the 3rd annual California Cruise-In at the Huntington Beach Pier on Saturday, April 26th, and look forward to seeing you there too.  Things are really coming together for the event, so we wanted to update everyone on what’s in store.

 

This year, along with the parking structure off of 6th street, we’ll take over the coveted Pier Plaza, right at the base of the Huntington Beach Pier for an all day bash. 

 

The Pier Plaza is the epicenter of the city of Huntington Beach, as it is perfectly situated along the beach, at the foot of the world-famous pier, and mere steps away from great shops and restaurants.  FFROGs from all over the SouthWest are chomping at the bit to join us at this phenomenal event.

 

Entrance is free for both spectators and those bringing their Factory Fives, yet space is filling up quickly, so make sure that you are registered. 

 

You can’t miss this one, so for everyone bringing a Factory Five, please be sure to register for a space in advance.
