So, we're going, it will be our first year. But I have questions...first off, do you get to drive your car all the way in to watch the movies? And if so, can we bring a cooler full of tropical rum based libations? What about dogs? Oh yeah, and if this past weekend was any indicator...BRING SUNSCREEN AND WATER! It gets hot as crap out in the Inland Empire. Thanks!

Aloha, is anyone else going to the Tiki Invasion? Last year was pretty fun and I hear this time around Tiki Diablo may actually get there, earlier.
We are planning on attending and I was going to bring odd ball pieces (that we can't sell on the website) out of the shop which we'll give you a great deal on. We have a bunch of custom bar pieces, top beams, moldings, that have slight imperfections. If there is anything you are after drop us a line, if we have it we'll bring it along, you are under no obligation to buy.
We are also cleaning out our storage and we're going to bring some vintage stuff (not just Tiki)if anybody is into that kind of thing.
Stop by and say hello.

I am still planning on coming and participating in the HotRod show.
Come look for us out there! I only plan on being there from the start till the mid afternoon because I can't handle the heat long and my niece is having a baby I need to go welcome into the family that evening.
Look for Christine:
Ben and I should be close by

Yes, you get to pull your car all the way in so you can watch movies later; there's also priority parking for hot rods/kustom cars. As for coolers & libations, yes. Or least you could last time. The only thing I'm not sure about is pets.
Who's bringing the grill??????
And don't forget to stop by and say hi to Kim and I in the Badland Beads booth. Mention TC for a discount

Looking forward to my first Tiki Invasion. I will not be able to get there until 6 - 6:30pm. Will the vendors and car show still be happening at that time? If not, it's all about Agent Orange and da flix!

So stoked on this! Bringing a car load full o kids and friends. This will be my kids first drive in. A wrong that is long past due to be righted! Music, tikis, and B movies on the big screen... I think I just peed myself just pondering it.
My only question is how the sound is set up for the movies. Speaker box? FM radio tuner? Anywhere for someone to pitch a beach chair and still get to hear the soundtrack?
I'll be the one with the lime green inflatable sofa pitched in front of my car.
TC ohana welcome!

Things to bring!
Most important not to forget these items!
Sunscreen, hats, folding lawn chairs, coolers with water, soda and ice, a change of shirt (or buy a new TIKI-INVASION II T shirt!) and a boom box radio with fresh batteries for the movie sound (which tunes in on FM radio). Canopies for shade are great, just weight down the legs with something heavy (gallon jugs of water or sand, barbell plates, cinder blocks) so they don't blow away in the wind and damage someone's head or someone's classic car, and take them down BEFORE the movies start.
Strange as this sounds, a light jacket or blanket is not a bad idea as it can get cool in the late evening at the drive-in. Cameras are permitted.
Bring cash too, we do not accept credit cards but we do have an ATM located inside the snack bar. Remember, if you are buying tickets at the gate they are cash only.
For movie watching, we recommed a "tailgate" style setup with lawnchairs, a blanket, rug or tarp to lay down on the ground and make things cozy, FM radio boom box for the movie sound and a cooler.
And bring ALL your friends who like to have a GREAT time!!
IF YOU ARE BRINGING LIBATIONS:
Please put your favorite libations is DISCREET CONTAINERS such a coke cups, sports bottles, travel mugs, or our plastic tiki mug available at the snack bar. We can not permit open beer cans, beer bottles, or any obvious alcohol container, which may include tiki mugs. We will have a limited amount of soda cups and lids available FREE of CHARGE for this purpose. We apologize for this necessity but keep reading.
The Montclair police will be present for our security which is a very GOOD thing, and even though we are on private property it is a public event which means no open containers allowed. Treat this event exactly like you would a day at the beach or the park. Be cool about drinking alcohol and the security will be cool towards you. If you doctor your soda pop up with something good, be discreet about pouring it and carrying it and everything will be perfectly fine.
Things NOT to bring:
Pets. Alas, Fido will not be very happy on hot asphalt all day and listening to loud music. Besides, we don't have much grass for him to do his business on. Then there is potential barking and biting complaints which neither of us needs.
Open alcohol containers, glass bottles of any kind. (see above!)
Thanks and we'll see you this weekend!
