The month of September doesn’t mean the end of summer for Southern Californians – far from it actually. On Sept. 5-7, 2014, a lineup of anthemic rock musicians will take the stage oceanside at 21601 Pacific Coast Highway, for Surf City’s premier event – the Huntington Beach Food, Art & Music Festival. Feel the sand between your toes as you rock out to classics by an All-Star band featuring members of Toto, Loverboy, Kansas, Chicago, Night Ranger and more. This premier family event will also host musical acts such as Gin Blossoms, Michelle Branch, Jefferson Starship, Blues Traveler’s John Popper and Don Dokken.
The Huntington Beach Food, Art & Music Festival will also feature national award-winning BBQ rib teams straight from The BBQ Championships in Reno, Nevada, representing more than 10 states and Canada, showcasing their finest culinary selections to taste. Foodies can also expect to experience some of the best food trucks that Southern California has to offer, as well as many other delicious local treats.
One hundred juried artists selected through an extensive process will showcase a wide variety of talents and mediums including jewelry, painting, woodworking and photography.
