On Wednesday, May 16th, Tilly’s hosted a 90s Rave themed party in the parking lot of its Irvine headquarters for its store managers from across the country, corporate employees, friends and family in connection with Tilly’s annual back-to-school meetings.
Thirty five of Tilly’s top brand partners came together to create an unforgettable
experience that included a variety of industry brand activations, food and
entertainment. Examples included Nixon¹s Nocturnal Wonderland, a neon
mechanical bull by Primitive, an indoor Volcom rave, silent disco from
O¹Neill, an adidas Oculus rift production, and much more. The managers and
brands all came ready to party, dressed in their rave-best, and the best
costume contest was won by Sean from Redondo Beach.
The evening was punctuated by the indie rock band, Echosmith, who
performed several songs at the party, including their hit song, Cool Kids.
Tilly’s greatly appreciates all of its brand partners and Echosmith for
providing Tilly’s store managers, employees, and special guests with an
incredible night that will be long remembered.
