A popular, new event in Huntington Beach, Surf City Nights, is a shopping and dining destination street fair that has given downtown restaurants and shops a shot in the arm on Tuesday nights, attracting several thousand people. The event takes place on Main Street and the surrounding shopping and dining area, with the second and third blocks of Main closed to vehicle traffic Tuesday evenings.

Traditionally one of the slowest nights of the week in Huntington Beach, the street fair and organic farmers market creates a family-friendly environment with entertainment catered to all ages.

Due to the popular success of this new event, HBDBID is poised to expand its schedule of Tuesday night street closures, hoping for more events to follow. Seeking sponsorship to maintain the program is the goal of Connie Pedenko, executive director of the HBDBID. "We're working hard to find sponsors to help pay for this new venture that the public loves," said the former Los Alamitos Chamber of Commerce CEO and longtime resident of Huntington Beach. Pedenko works on behalf of downtown Huntington Beach businesses to create a thriving, family-friendly environment for residents and tourists. Corporate and individual sponsorships are available.
