As if the thrill of aviation firsts, supersonic jets and world-class aerobatics aren't enough, Pacific Airshow is taking the annual beachfront event even higher with the addition of the two-night Afterburner Music Festival, the first live music event to take place on Huntington City Beach since 2013. The official After Party of Pacific Airshow, the festival will take place October 1 and 2 with an array of musical acts including Sammy Hagar & The Circle, Sam Hunt and X Ambassadors.
"Combining daytime mind-bending aviation feats with evening celebrations of live music has been our vision for Pacific Airshow, and we are grateful to the city of Huntington Beach for sharing that vision. Pacific Airshow is back and bringing extraordinary sights and sounds to our community for the biggest event of the year, and we can't wait for Afterburner Music Festival to hit the beach this fall," said Kevin Elliott, Event Director of Pacific Airshow and Afterburner Music Festival.
Rock & Roll Hall of Fame vocalist, guitarist and songwriter Sammy Hagar and his band "Sammy Hagar & The Circle" will headline the first night of Afterburner Music Festival on Friday, October 1, with chart-topping, award-winning country artist Sam Hunt headlining the show on Saturday, October 2 with an accompanying performance by X Ambassadors.
