Meet on Beach invites the community to experience Beach Boulevard in a whole new way during the all-new multi-city community festival set to connect and reimagine the historic corridor on Sunday, November 17. From La Habra to Huntington Beach, experience the route as a walkable and bike-friendly street through a day-of curated programming at pop-up events from the seven-cities along the 21-mile corridor including food, live music and performances, interactive workshops, bike and pedestrian-friendly activities, a party on the beach at the Huntington Pier, and 1.5 miles of open streets in Buena Park and Anaheim.

Meet on Beach is created by the Renew Beach Boulevard Coalition, the seven-city alliance between La Habra, Buena Park, Anaheim, Stanton, Garden Grove, Westminster, and Huntington Beach, and presented by the Southern California Association of Governments’ (SCAG) Go Human campaign in partnership with the Mobile Source Air Pollution Reduction Review Committee and produced by Community Arts Resources. The event is one of the collective efforts from the Coalition to transform Beach Boulevard into a lasting, lively, and active destination for the tens of thousands of Orange County residents and the region beyond.
