Pharcyde's Novemberfest
Pharcyde's Novemberfest
This would be my first going to Pharcyde’s Novemberfest but certainly not my last. I’ve always known this show would bring out most of Arizona’s heavy hitters but I was presently surprised at the number of vehicles that actually attended this year’s event. There were even a good number of California rides that made the trip down even though I doubt anyone drove their ride as long as I did to get down there it was nice to see many of So. Cal’s best up and coming rides in attendance.
First off I must say that if it wasn’t for Oliver and Pops from Domination the Video it more then likely wouldn’t have been possible for me to attend this years event. I appreciate them and their hospitality. Oliver even threw a kegger for my arrival into the Phoenix area! That’s a story in its self!
Upon my arrival the show is set on a water front park with plenty of space to walk around without hassle. There were tons of complete custom rides and up n’ coming build-ups. The one thing I particularly like about the show is the simple fact that all vehicles are parked in categories. Trucks in one general area, cars in another with rods/customs and under construction in another. I’ve never really seen this before but seems to be a cool way of locating rides and is hell of a lot easier for us photographers to cover.
For those of you that have never been to Novemberfest I’d suggest hitting it up next year. This is pretty much a free show for all show goer’s and spectators alike. The main entry fee is simply a donation that is then given to a needy charity or in this years case a club member who was seriously hurt in an accident and is now left in a very unfortunate state. I’m going to do what I can to attend next years event as well but this time maybe have one of my rides finished and enter it for the cause.
