The Event
Is it free?
Absolutely. The event is completely free to attend. All you need to do is register so we can plan supplies and accurately count participants toward our world record attempt.
What should I bring?
While we will have cleanup materials onsite, it will help us reduce waste further if you BYOB (bring your own bag). We'll also have plenty of water and beverages to ensure participants are well hydrated. We do recommend bringing a reusable water bottle and wearing comfortable clothes and closed-toe shoes.
Is parking available?
There are several paid parking lots and street parking options near Venice Beach. We encourage walking, biking, carpooling, or rideshare whenever possible.
Can I bring my kids or family?
Yes! This is a family-friendly event. Anyone joining the official cleanup count will need to be registered and have a signed waiver on file.
What happens to the trash we collect?
Everything collected is sorted onsite, with recyclable materials separated out wherever possible before the rest is properly disposed of.
Registration & The Record
How will my attendance be recorded?
Please register online to provide contact information along with your signed waiver to confirm your participation. We need this in addition to event photography and videography to certify the Guinness World Record.
Do I need to stay the whole time to count?
Come whenever you can between 4–8PM. That said, checking in and signing your waiver is what makes your participation count toward the record, so don't skip that step.
Volunteering & Sponsors
What if I want to become a partner or volunteer?
Amazing! We'd love to hear from you. Volunteers and partners can help us provide more cleanup supplies, recruit more participants, and create a bigger impact for our oceans. Head to our volunteer page to sign up, or contact us about sponsorship.
How do I become a sponsor for this year's event?
We're actively looking for sponsors for this year's cleanup. Reach out through our contact page and we'll get back to you with details.
