So-Cal people, we are in need for suggestions. Although there are a few feasible locations we have already started to possible integrate into this years AcuraFest, I still want to find a few more locations to open the selection up a bit more.

A few factors:

Has to be So-Cal.
Has to be able to accommodate 200 cars. This can be underground parking lot, parking structure next door, or on premise.
No parks or parking lots.
Without giving away too much we are looking for a possible hotel/resort style location where we can host the event. We will also be talking to management to provide special rates as well. We realize we will have attendance from all over the place, and a place to crash and after party will most definitely be part of the consideration!
Should feel upscale - no motel 7's, super 8's, Good Nite Inn's.
Think of Hilton, The W, SLS, etc.
Please list anything that comes to your mind, I don't care and will research them all.

Just participate! Thanks!

 

Just got your message Mike. Acura is the "Preferred Vehicle" of W Hotels. So why not see if you can arrange for a meet over at the one in LA, or SD

I'll think of something else later.

 

I've stayed all of these except the Long Beach Hilton and are very nice hotels/resorts

Great, left a message with the W in Hollywood.



That's great! I've stayed at the LB Hyatt as well. Keep the suggestions coming!

 

so are moving locations?

id like to get out of fresno for a bit

 

If we find a viable location that can support us!

 

When is this gonna happen?

 

Patience MATT, we are reviewing options to make sure we can have a baseline to compare all future venues for ACURAFEST. And yes, Mike has blessed me with opening my eyes to these HEAVENLY LOCATIONS IN PERSON. AAAH HEMMM

 

Just a suggestion, it's nice, not as crowed, good weather temps and has a Casino..hahaha!

Harrah's Rincon Casino & Resort

777 Harrah's Rincon Way
Valley Center, CA 92082

^ I second Harrah's. If you get off hwy 78 (oceanside), there is a drive up the mountains, that could prove to be VERY FUN.

 

Irvine Grand Hyatt?

 

Great place. I used to have serious connections there, but I'm not too sure anymore. This is why I didn't mention it.

 

*cough* Vegas *ahem*

 

WOW! allot closer than I expected u guys to get!

 

Too bad I won't be 21 by the time Afest hits haha

 

Orange County?

 

No worries..21 and under will have activities too =)

 

Yea they get:

Face Painting
A Bouncer
Horsey Rides
A Clown making balloon animals

 

 

i think vegas is a good idea regardless if 21 or not. bet more than half these under aged kids will be shit faced anyways

 

 

I would suggest Vegas as well, but since it's so hot there, I was suggesting Harrah's Rincon. Nice mountain drives, nice scenic drive, 2 Jilberto's Mexican joints (great food there!) and one of them has a large open parking area.

And I was just out there this past weekend and it topped out at 84 degrees with a nice cool breeze.

 

I agree, there is a nice scenic drive up through the mountains (hwy 76 actually) pass Pala Casino and then another 11 miles until Rincon off of Hwy S6 or also known as Valley Center Rd.

 

I can't wait for this!

 

Has anyone ever been to PALA CASINO?
