The Sunset Strip is celebrating the completion of the Sunset Strip Beautification Project on Aug. 12, and you are invited to join! The celebration includes the official launch of Gibson GuitarTown on The Sunset Strip — a public arts project that will feature more than 25 ten-foot tall fiberglass Gibson Les Paul model guitars strategically placed on the legendary Sunset Strip — as well as a  Block Party!

 

The event kicks off with the "grand reopening" of the boulevard at 5 p.m. featuring a caravan of classic cars driving The Strip (and an official ribbon cutting outside of the Andaz hotel and The Comedy Store). After the opening, guests are encouraged to walk the newly renovated boulevard, viewing the guitars as well enjoying the many promotions and special events hosted at businesses along the boulevard. The Block Party includes dining and drinks specials, patio parties, shopping discounts, extended hours and unique offers throughout the night. Grab your shoes and join us as we walk, shop, dine and celebrate The Sunset Strip!
