What:
Riviera Magazine is proud to announce its 1st annual, Lido Goes POP at Riviera Village!

While Film Festival followers continue to enjoy the amazing films at the Regency Lido Theatre, this year, Riviera felt compelled to add a little unique flair to the Festival’s agenda! Several luxury, hand-selected retailers, hotels, spas, artists and restaurants will temporarily open a ‘Pop-Up’ store, gracing the streets of Via Lido & Via Oporto from April 28- May 5th, during the 12th Annual Newport Beach Film Festival.

Monday – Friday 4-10PM
Saturday – Sunday 10-10PM

The lovely Riviera Village will not only offer moviegoers shopping, dining and the opportunity to indulge but it also revives the Lido Village with the additional attractions and foot traffic. In hopes to create this lavish experience for the Film Festival followers, Riviera also wanted to give back to its community of Newport Beach in a memorable manner, which truly shows effort. Filling 10 of the 14 vacant retail spaces, the ultimate goal is to create energy and attention to the quaint Village.

In addition, the NEWPORT BEACH FILM FESTIVAL, RIVERA MAGAZINE & their partners offers film-goers to have a rare opportunity to meet the filmmakers. Directors, screenwriters and cinematographers eager to share their work will gather at selected pop-ups throughout the week to share an exclusive inside look at the industry during post-screening Q&A’s.

Riviera Magazine partners who will appear at the Village include K’Ya Bistro, AG Jeans, Michael Antonio, fanreviews.com, Dooney & Bourke, NapaStyle, One Medical Group, NVision Laser Eye Center, Hyatt Regency & Resort, Stonemill Design Center & Ligne Roset. Renowned & local artists such as Peter Blake, Lord Byron Photography, Alrik Yuill Concepts, Richard McDonald and Martin Lawrence will be showcasing their beautiful creations each night of the Village. Village visitors can enjoy an array of custom designed pop-ups offering goodies, giveaways & sneak peeks at new products as well as tasty bites from well known restaurants throughout the day and into the evening.

Lord Byron Photography will participate by setting up a gallery of his work in the “Riviera Goes Art” suite.
3421 Via Oporto
Tuesday, May 3rd 4-10PM

You know me. You know I am a man of many passions: I love to travel, am passionate to the point of obsession about photography, have an unexplainable love for humanity, flora and fauna – in short, God’s creation. You know I am drawn to ADVENTURE.

For the past 10+ years these passions have smoldered, but within the past several months they have been stoked into a fire – a burning, beautiful blaze that yearns to be set free to grow and move not with the whim of the wind, but with the breath of God Himself. This fiery passion has given birth to Rare Earth International.

ADVENTURE AWAITS!!!
Far too many modern travelers are spoon-fed the world on immaculately planned and generic outings all of which pack about as much originality as a trip to the closest Taco Bell. But it is clear that in this age of endless options our world is still a wild and beautiful place to explore. Rare Earth International knows that the harder you push and the further you stray from the well-worn path of conventional vacations, the more gratifying is the experience.
