PREVIOUSLY: Next Saturday\u2019s Bicycle Drive-In and WIZARD OF OZ to Spice Up DLBA\u2019s Summer and Music Festival<\/strong><\/p>\n

07\/09\/15 at 4:01PM |<\/strong> Next Saturday, July 18, Downtown Long Beach Associates (DLBA) will continue its free Summer and Music Festival<\/a> with the Bicycle Drive-In event, which features a concert and a screening of The Wizard of Oz<\/em> in the Promenade parking lot.<\/p>\n

The concert will feature the Long Beach band MOVE, performing Laserium hits, and offer participants a chance to enjoy Silent Disco<\/a>. All are encouraged to bring their bicycle.<\/p>\n

“If there are two things the DLBA is undoubtedly behind promoting, it is alternative transportation and free music,” said Kraig Kojian, president and CEO of the DLBA in a statement. “Creating events that cater to alternative transportation and make it convenient for attendees to walk or take their bike is essential for both our organization and a healthier DTLB. And let\u2019s be honest: who doesn\u2019t want to ride in to a free screening of The Wizard of Oz<\/em>?”<\/p>\n

The Silent Disco element of the concert provides $5 wireless headphones to those who wish to participate, allowing patrons to enjoy curated music and a soundtrack designed to be paired with The Wizard of Oz<\/em>. Participants can also score a pair of headphones and a discounted beer from Beachwood BBQ and Congregation Ale House for $10.<\/p>\n

“I think everyone has had\u2014or at least dreamt of\u2014that magical summer night at the drive-in,” said SAM Co-Founder Rand Foster in a statement. “We want you to re-live that magic but in a different way\u2026It\u2019s time to get out of your car, hop on a bike, and have a moment where you experience something truly great: seeing your neighborhood from a human level while experiencing free music, a free movie, and an entirely unique atmosphere.”<\/p>\n

The Bicycle Drive-In will take place between Third Street and Broadway on the Promenade. For more information, visit the event Facebook page, here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
