ABOUT
CARS ‘N COPTERS 2025
Cars ‘N Copters on the Coast, now in its 7th year, features unique Hypercars such as Koenigseggs, Bugattis, Paganis, McLarens, Lamborghinis, Aston Martins and many more! For many spectators, this is a unique opportunity to see these rare vehicles up close. Cars ‘N Copters on the Coast, benefiting the Huntington Beach Police and Community Foundation, will keep the mission of the HBPCF on track as we continue to facilitate community support that fosters and enhances a stronger working relationship between the Huntington Beach Police Department and those who live, work, and play here. This event is a family-friendly fundraiser, attracting both residents and tourists from near and far. We are anticipating over 400 cars of a variety of makes and models, 50+ on-site vendors of all walks of automotive life, as well as several privately owned helicopters. Cars ‘N Copters is a FREE event for spectators. Spectator parking is available outside of the show at any of the nearby city lots. The Huntington Beach Police & Community Foundation is 501(c)(3).
This year, we will once again have our Exclusive Helicopter Landing Watch Party on Saturday, October 11th at the Offshore9 Rooftop Lounge. The official Cars ‘N Copters event will be held on Sunday, October 12th from 10am-3pm.

Together we are building bridges that strengthen and enrich our community.
Since our inaugural event in 2018, CARS ‘N COPTERS supports the Huntington Beach Police & Community Foundation.
The Huntington Beach Police and Community Foundation (HBPCF) proudly supports programs that strengthen the bond between the Huntington Beach Police Department (HBPD) and the community it serves. Thanks to generous community support, HBPCF helps expand the Department’s outreach through impactful initiatives such as Shop With a Cop, Scholarships for High School Seniors, HBPD Awards and Recognition events, Law Enforcement Memorial Program support and more.
In addition to community programs, HBPCF directly supports the officers of the Huntington Beach Police Department by funding Capital Projects such as the K-9 Kim Training Field, the State-of-the-Art SWAT Training Center and other vital equipment including Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs) installed in patrol vehicles.
By fostering connection, trust, and mutual support, the Foundation plays a vital role in building bridges between the Police Department and those who live, work, and play in Huntington Beach.
