Culture, tradition and socializing come together like waves to the sand at the annual Manhattan Beach Open AVP pro beach volleyball tournament July 16-19. Talk about a beach party!

AVP stands for the Association of Volleyball Professionals, but this tournament has been around long before there was such an organization. It is such a part of this Southern California surfside city that people turn out by the thousands, sitting on towels, in beach chairs or just on the sand cheering on the pros of the game they play on these same courts the rest of the year. In fact, the sport was born on this very beach.

General Admission tickets are free!  But, you can purchase reserve seats here.

Don’t miss this event.  Parking is hard to come by so I suggest parking in Hermosa Beach, or El Segundo and riding your skateboard down the strand.  See you there!
