There's not many shoes companies out there who can say they are about to hit their 50th year mark of producing high quality kicks for riders worldwide and feeding back to our culture, but that's exactly what Vans have done. On March 16 2016, Vans will bring together 50 years of “Off The Wall” heritage in BMX, art, and music for a worldwide celebration at the House of Vans, including D.I.Y workshops, shoe personalization, a retrospective look at the brand’s history, curated musical performances, and an interactive 3-D display of Vans’ 2016 brand campaign. Van's explains more about what they've got in store...

"The March 16 kick off events are the beginning of the global expansion of House of Vans, which further cements Vans’ dedication to fostering creative expression through action sports, art, music and street culture. Throughout 2016, Vans will host a variety of activations including skateboarding demos, music events, interactive design workshops and art installations, all to continue to encourage the creative communities that have supported Vans for the past 50 years. As the cultural hub for Vans, House of Vans seeks to inspire and connect with everyone who enters the space. With two permanent locations, one in New York and the second in London, Vans’ golden anniversary year will introduce pop-up House of Vans experiences to more locations around the globe creating a space where Vans enthusiasts around the world can interact with the brand one-on-one.
