Registration: To register online for Moving Day, go to www.movingdayorangecounty.org. You can register in person at the Registration Tent on walk day. We strongly encourage everyone to register pre-event. There is no registration fee; however, we encourage all participants to raise at least $100 to receive an official 2019 Moving Day shirt on walk day. Fundraise $250 or more to receive an exclusive Moving Day water bottle on walk day. Walk participants can earn additional fundraising rewards. Please visit our Fundraising Rewards page for more information.

All participants that have pre-registered must check-in at the Registration Tent on walk day.

Directions: The event is located at the Segerstrom Center for the Arts at 600 Town Center Drive, Costa Mesa, CA 92626. When you arrive, please follow the Moving Day signs.

Parking:

PARKING AT SEGERSTROM – $12 (cash or card)

Parking at the Segerstrom Center’s Center Tower Parking Structure is the closest and most convenient place to park. Segerstrom is located at 600 Town Center Drive, Costa Mesa, 92626. Their lot can be accessed from either Town Center Drive via Bristol or Park Center Drive via Sunflower (see the black star on map below), and the walk from the structure to the event site is very short.

As you enter from those streets you will see a large circular fountain, you may also drop anyone off here before you park if you would like (see the blue star on map below).

This is the parking location we most recommend. It is $12, which can be paid via cash or card.

FREE PARKING

If you prefer to not pay for parking, we have secured a free lot, generously donated by Experian. The Experian structure is located at 475 Anton Blvd, Costa Mesa, 92626. This parking is free but be advised that it is a about a half mile walk to/from the event site at the Segerstrom Center.

From Anton Blvd, turn on to Experian Way, across from the Enclave apartments. Continue towards the parking structure. Visitors can park on any floor. The elevator is on the northeast side of the structure.

To walk back to the Segerstrom Center: exit parking structure to Anton Blvd and walk left (towards Enclave Apartment Homes sign). Continue on Anton, you will pass Flower Street, keep walking and then turn right on Ave of the Arts, which will lead to the plaza on your left. These streets are typically quiet but please walk carefully and watch for traffic.

Walk Route: The Moving Day walk is for participants of all ages and all abilities. The full walk is 2 laps, which is just under 3 miles. There is a short cut-off option at ½ mile, and one lap is just over 1 mile.
