SURF NITE IN SLO: THE 100 FOOT WAVE EXPEREINCE

PRESENTED BY CITY OF PISMO BEACH ALSO SUPPORTED BY VESPERA RESORT ON PISMO BEACH, SURFING FOR HOPE, THE KRUSH 92.5 AND CAYUCOS COLLECTIVE

Surf Nite in SLO is one of those rare events fueled by the energy and enthusiasm of the crowd that attends each year. It is with great excitement that we will be returning to the FREMONT THEATER for the first time in many years to celebrate surfing on the big screen! With iconic cars, drinks in the lobby and live music from the Boomer Surf Band before the feature, join us for what’s been coined the “Rocky Horror Picture Show” for surf and film lovers!We’re excited to present the 100 FOOT Wave Experience with legendary Big Wave Surfer Garrett & his partner Nicole McNamara in attendance. McNamara’s Emmy award winning show exploring big wave surfing and the pursuit conquering the 100 foot wave. This is a rare opportunity to see the show on the big screen and hear from Garrett himself and what’s upcoming in Season 2.

THE 100 FOOT WAVE EXPERIENCE

 

On the brink of airing season 2, we are so thrilled to play an episode from the first season of HBO’s 100 FOOT WAVE, featuring Garrett McNamara who pioneered the giant waves of the previously unknown town of Nazare, Portugal. His effort drove the sport of surfing to new heights and helped transform this tiny fishing village into the world’s preeminent big-wave surfing destination. This breathtaking six-part documentary series chronicles McNamara’s quest, and we can’t wait to experience one of the episodes on the big screen with you, like you’ve never seen it before.

 

After the film we’ll be joined for a conversation by surfing legend and the main subject in the film, Garrett McNamara, and shown an exclusive blooper reel of the content that didn’t make it into the show, and a teaser of what’s to come in Season 2!
