From the roar of jet engines above North Island Naval Air Station \u2014 the birthplace of naval aviation, and the backdrop for Top Gun \u2014 to the cutting-edge aircraft that have defined the island\u2019s identity for generations. So it\u2019s fitting that after\u00a0engines roar across the island, with thousands of racing fans and visitors in town, CIFF will offer a cultural collision of film, sport, and community.<\/p>\n<p>The screening will take place at the Coronado Performing Arts Center, 650 D Avenue. Doors open at 7 pm and the film begins at 7:45 pm. General admission is $10 and\u00a0 a limited number of \u201cPit Crew\u201d VIP Sponsor Packages are available for $200.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a style=\"color: #ffffff;\" href=\"https:\/\/coronadofilmfest.com\/talladega-nights\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">TICKETS ON SALE HERE<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The event is also a fundraiser benefiting the Coronado Island Film Festival \u2014 supporting the art and science of cinema, educational outreach, community programming, and the annual international film festival.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"This June, as the checkered flag goes down on the inaugural NASCAR San Diego Weekend, the Coronado Island&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":258147,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[28],"tags":[5943,2352,74,76,75],"class_list":["post-258146","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-san-diego","tag-coronado-island-film-festival","tag-nascar","tag-san-diego","tag-san-diego-headlines","tag-san-diego-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/258146","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=258146"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/258146\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/258147"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=258146"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=258146"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=258146"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
