Event Overview
The Rock for Tots mission is to create an unforgettable experience that unites the community through incredible music, bringing together some of the best bands and musicians. Through this concert, we aim to inspire others while raising funds and collecting toys to bring joy and hope to underprivileged children in Los Angeles. Together, we make a difference.
Our event is special for many reasons, one of which is that it has become a cherished tradition in the community. What began 19 years ago as a small gathering in a Hermosa Beach bar has grown into a full-scale production, now taking place on the iconic Hermosa Beach Pier Plaza.
The 19th Annual Rock for Tots Charity Concert was an incredible event! Six amazing bands performed 20-minute sets, with just a 10-minute changeover between each performance. Guests were encouraged to bring a new, unwrapped toy to donate. In exchange for their donation, they received a FREE raffle ticket for a chance to win fantastic prizes donated by local businesses. Additional raffle tickets were available for purchase, as well as exclusive Rock for Tots T-shirts and ornaments.
100% of the proceeds benefited two wonderful causes: the Beach Cities Toy Drive, which collects, wraps, and distributes toys to families in need, and the Harbor Regional Center’s Holiday Help Fund, which supports families with children who have disabilities. Both organizations are 501(c)(3) non-profits dedicated to making a difference in the community.
Producer’s Comments
“We reached out to PopUp WiFi because we needed a reliable internet connection to support our live stream, but since our event was held outdoors, we didn’t have access to a direct ethernet connection. After searching online for a solution, we discovered PopUp WiFi.
They supplied us with “The Beast” for our wifi needs. Setting it up was incredibly easy, and the connection remained strong throughout the entire night. We never experienced any signal loss or interruptions, and the online playback was smooth and seamless.
If our internet didn’t work, there would have been a lot of sad viewers at home, all bummed out and missing the chance to watch and support our event.
PopUp WiFi truly delivers! From the moment I requested an online quote, I received a call from Nina, the owner—how cool is that? She was super friendly and immediately knew which unit we would need for our event. We used “The Beast”, and it was incredibly easy to set up and worked flawlessly. The entire process, from renting to receiving shipping updates and detailed operation instructions, was top-notch. I highly recommend PopUp WiFi for your next mobile live stream. We’ll definitely be using them again!” – Jeremy Buck, President
