Why Redondo Beach works for a corporate event

How a Redondo Beach event works with us

Redondo Beach events happen at King Harbor, where the hotels sit on the marina a short walk from the pier. The groups we meet here are mostly South Bay companies, automotive, aerospace and food and beverage, holding a meeting close to their offices, plus teams flying in through LAX, a short drive north. We run the program in the hotel or out along the harbor and keep to the meeting's agenda.

More about corporate events in Redondo Beach, CA

Builds for automotive teams

Automotive groups book two programs here more than any others. Go-Kart Competition has teams design and build their own self-powered karts, then race them, and Bridge to the Future has teams build a bridge strong enough to carry the whole group, each section painted with the team's goals. Both have run at the Sonesta Redondo Beach and Marina on the same day, for an automotive company's meetings.

The pier and the harbor as a course

The Redondo Beach Pier, the boardwalk and the King Harbor marina sit side by side, so a City SmartHunt® can run entirely on foot. It has started from the Portofino Hotel and Marina for a food and beverage company and for an aerospace group, with teams of eight to ten taking photo and video challenges on iPads we provide.

Charitable builds at the Portofino

The Portofino, at the end of its own marina, has hosted our charitable programs too. Bike Build Donation® has run there, and a wheelchair build has run there for the same company that ran a SmartHunt the day before.

Leadership sessions

Competition to Collaboration® has run at the Sonesta for an automotive leadership group, a facilitated session in which two sub-teams find they do better sharing what works. It needs a meeting room and about 30 square feet a person.

Where Redondo Beach events happen

The Sonesta Redondo Beach and Marina and the Portofino Hotel and Marina are the two hotels we work in most. The Redondo Beach Hotel, a Hilton hotel on North Harbor Drive, suits a smaller group and has hosted a tabletop games tournament. Donations from Redondo Beach programs have gone to the Boys & Girls Club in nearby Harbor City.

Part of Greater Los Angeles

Redondo Beach is part of our Los Angeles coverage, with Santa Monica up the coast and Long Beach across the peninsula. The same team runs events across Los Angeles and into Orange County.

Planning guide

Sizing a program for a King Harbor hotel

The harbor hotels have ballrooms, terraces over the water and smaller meeting rooms. Next to each program is the space one guest needs.

Floor area per person

Measured another way

City SmartHunt®
A start at the hotel; the route follows the harbor, the boardwalk and the pier.

The beach is run by Los Angeles County Beaches and Harbors. An organized group on the sand needs a county Special Event Use Permit, applied for no earlier than 90 days and no later than three weeks ahead.

A worked example

1,800 sq ft

60 people at 30 sq ft each

Each square is one person’s 30 sq ft.

Go-Kart Competition needs a straight lane for the race. Ask the hotel for the longest room, or a terrace, when you book.

Corporate events and team building in Redondo Beach, CA: questions we get

Where do you run team building events in Redondo Beach?

At the King Harbor hotels: the Sonesta Redondo Beach and Marina, The Portofino Hotel and Marina and the Redondo Beach Hotel. We run programs in their meeting rooms and ballrooms, and SmartHunts start in the lobby and head out to the pier and the marina.

What are the best team building activities in Redondo Beach?

Bridge to the Future and Go-Kart Competition are what Redondo Beach groups book most, followed by City SmartHunt®. Competition to Collaboration® suits a leadership team, and Bike Build Donation® is the charitable build that has run here.

Can a SmartHunt use the pier and the beach?

A SmartHunt route can use the pier, the boardwalk and the harbor walk, which are all a few minutes on foot from the hotels. The sand itself is run by Los Angeles County, and an organized group activity on the beach needs a county Special Event Use Permit, applied for between 90 days and three weeks ahead.

Does Redondo Beach weather allow an outdoor program in winter?

Almost any month. Highs run from the mid 60s in winter to the mid 70s in August and September, and summer is nearly rainless. January and February bring most of the year's rain, so a winter program holds a room as the backup.

Are there waterfront events we should avoid?

The Super Bowl Sunday 10K runs past the pier and King Harbor with thousands of runners on the morning of the game, February 14 in 2027. The BeachLife music festival and the Lobster Festival also draw crowds to the waterfront; ask us to check their dates against yours.

How do attendees get to Redondo Beach?

LAX is a short drive north, and the Metro K Line ends at Redondo Beach station, with Beach Cities Transit and Metro buses stopping at the pier. For a group driving in, the Pier and Plaza parking structures hold 1,350 cars at $2.25 an hour.

Which South Bay organizations have received donations?

Donations from Redondo Beach programs have gone to the Boys & Girls Club of the Los Angeles Harbor, which serves Harbor City and the neighboring harbor communities. We can also give to a South Bay cause your company already supports.

What lead time does a Redondo Beach event need?

Six to eight weeks is usually enough for a program in a harbor hotel, and more for a large group or a spring date. If the program needs the beach, the county permit has to be filed at least three weeks out.

Also serving teams across Greater Los Angeles

One team covers the whole metro. An activity in Redondo Beach, CA is the same activity, run by the same facilitators, as in any of these cities.
