La Jolla Design District will be the focal point of the next Haute La Jolla Nights, featuring 10 live outdoor bands, boutique shopping and prize giveaways on Saturday, Aug. 17 from 6 to 9 p.m. throughout downtown La Jolla Village.
The free event is hosted by La Jolla Village Merchants Association (LJVMA) and sponsored by the Optical Shop of ASPEN.
The La Jolla Design District encompasses more than 25 home furnishings and décor businesses on Girard Avenue from Prospect to Pearl.
LJVMA decided to move Haute La Jolla Nights further down Girard Avenue to give visibility to the many interior design shops in La Jolla Village.
“We are welcoming several new and prestigious home-design companies to La Jolla such as Sur la Table, Nativa Interiors, Symphony Home Décor & Design, California Closets and several others,” said Sheila Fortune, LJVMA’s executive director. “These businesses join a host of established, but no less exciting, design shops, which comprise La Jolla’s impressive Interior Design District. We want people to realize just how much La Jolla has to offer in haute fashions for the home.”
A series of free fun special events, Haute La Jolla Nights was launched last summer to re-create the Village as a nighttime destination for residents and visitors alike.
In addition to live music all along Girard Avenue, patrons will be able to enter a drawing to win free merchandise and gift certificates from La Jolla Hotels, restaurants and shops. Sponsoring locations include: Adelaide’s Florists and Decorators, 7766 Girard Ave.; Puesto Mexican Street Food, 1026 Wall St.; Nosh Delicatessen, 7734 Girard Ave.; The Secret, 7634 Girard Ave.; Goodwill Store, 7631 Girard Ave.; Harry’s Coffee Shop, 7545 Girard Ave.; Symphony Home Décor & Design, 7447 Girard Ave.; We Olive, 1158 Prospect St.; and Optical Shop of ASPEN, 1026 Prospect Ave.
Prizes include merchandise or gift certificates from all of the sponsors in addition to gift certificates from La Jolla Village Lodge and FitWall. Winners are drawn from combined entries from all of the sponsoring locations. The winners will be notified by phone and/or email within five days of the event.
Featured bands are ZB Savoy, Dialog Project, Casey Turner, Aja Lee, Neveready, Saline Solutions, Marcela & The Honey Rocks, Gregory Micheal, and Jazz Pigs. Bands are sponsored by Harcourts Prestige Properties, Southern California Vacation Rentals and Studio Stratton.
