THE EXPERIENCE
WELCOME ABOARD
Your adventure begins the moment you arrive. Step onto the docks at West Harbor—one of LA's most exciting waterfront projects in a generation—and get your first look at a destination that's redefining what coastal Los Angeles can be. A welcome boarding drink is waiting for you. You've earned it.
DOCKSIDE RECEPTION
Two drink passes. A curated spread of local San Pedro flavors. Ambient music. Good company. Whether you're catching up with colleagues or making new connections, this is the warm-up act—and it's a good one.
INDUSTRIAL THEATRE ON THE WATER
All aboard El Escudo for a San Pedro Harbor cruise unlike anything in your breakout session lineup. As we glide through San Pedro Bay, the stage reveals itself—massive container ships, working cranes, tugboats, and the raw, magnificent machinery of the Port of Los Angeles. It's part harbor tour, part industrial spectacle, and entirely unforgettable. Cash bar is open. Views are free.
