More Event Information

Event Information:

The 18th Annual AIDS Walk Long Beach is the 5K Walkathon that raises funds for the beneficiary agencies that provide HIV/AIDS services and education to our Long Beach citizens. Since 1989 this event has help raise $1.9 million dollars to over 30 beneficiary agencies in the greater South Bay and  Long Beach area.

Event Location:

The Pike Shopping & Entertainment Center in

Downtown Long Beach

Parking is available throughout the downtown area.  The Pike has a parking structure adjacent to the property as part of the Pike Shopping and Entertainment Center.  Parking is Free for those who stay to watch a movie at The Cinemark Movie Theatres; otherwise free parking is available for the first 90 minutes with restaurant/retail validation.  Rates are $1.50 per half-hour thereafter.
