Port of Los Angeles’ Gene Seroka Will Outline 2026 Priorities at New AltaSea Venue
Dec. 3, 2025 – Moving to a new, larger location, the Port of Los Angeles and Pacific Merchant Shipping Association (PMSA) will present the 11th annual State of the Port of Los Angeles luncheon at 11 a.m., Thursday, Jan. 22. The event will be held at Lands End at Alta Sea at the Port of Los Angeles, a historic waterfront warehouse.
Port of Los Angeles Executive Director Gene Seroka will deliver keynote remarks, outlining projects and priorities for 2026 and beyond.
Tickets for the State of the Port are available for purchase here. This event sells out each year.
“We are excited to host the State of the Port at AltaSea for the first time, pairing this historic waterfront venue with our annual must-attend maritime industry event,” said Mike Jacob, President of the PMSA. “The maritime industry can also be proud that this event continues to give back to the community, with over 10 years of State of the Port proceeds benefiting outstanding local nonprofits.”
Sponsorships for the event are still available, with all proceeds going to support two local non-profit organizations, EXP and Toberman Neighborhood Center.
EXP provides education programs to thousands of local area high school students every year, helping young people gain experience, unlock doors and build the confidence they need to succeed in school, career and life.
The Toberman Neighborhood Center is a more than 100-year-old organization serving the communities of San Pedro, Wilmington, and Harbor City, offering a wide spectrum of vital transformative services ranging from food and housing assistance to youth education, violence prevention and intervention, and family resource programs.
Since the first State of the Port of Los Angeles event in 2016, the PMSA has raised more than $271,000 in donations benefiting non-profit organizations.
