Whether you’re wrangling 20 executives for a high-stakes strategy session or throwing a 200-person company party, Torrance has plenty of options that are more affordable and easier to navigate than some other Los Angeles area options.

Built for HR coordinators, office managers, executive assistants, and team leads, this guide walks you through choosing the right venue by group size, booking lodging, arranging group dining and team building, and getting free local support from the Discover Torrance team.

Choose a Space by Group Size

To help narrow it down, here is where different head counts fit best around Torrance.

Up to 20 Guests

Consider one of Torrance’s several hotel meeting rooms for leadership retreats, strategy sessions and team dinners.

• Sonesta ES Suites Torrance Redondo Beach has a 500 sq. ft. room that holds 20 theater style
• Asuka Room at the Miyako Hybrid Hotel Torrance holds 20 in 394 sq. ft.

20 to 50 Guests

There are also larger size meeting spaces in Torrance’s hotels to accommodate mid-size team events and department gatherings.

• Courtyard Los Angeles Torrance/Palos Verdes has two 637 sq. ft. rooms that each hold up to 40 guests
• Bluestem Hotel has a courtyard with a fire pit for gatherings of up to 40

50 to 100 Guests

For company parties and larger events consider:

• Bluestem Hotel’s Meeting/Banquet Room holds up to 80 guests in 1,710 sq. ft.
• Hermosa Brewing Company’s Torrance taproom offers a private room or the full brewery for up to 100 guests
• Smog City Brewing Company offers fully private or shared event space, and it lists office parties and corporate gatherings among the events it hosts.
• On the nearby Palos Verdes Peninsula, the Koi Pond Patio at South Coast Botanic Garden holds up to 100 depending on setup

100 to 200 Guests

For large company parties and regional events consider:

• Nara and Kyoto Rooms at the Miyako Hybrid Hotel Torrance offering a total space of 2,016 sq. ft. that holds up to 120 guests
• Absolution Brewing Company hosts events in its brewery and beer garden for up to 200 guests standing
• At the South Coast Botanic Garden, the Garden Amphitheater and Rose Garden each hold up to 150, and the Lower Meadow holds up to 300 depending on setup

More than 200 Guests

Torrance has a handful options for very large events.

• DoubleTree by Hilton Torrance South Bay has 15,000 sq. ft. of space and their largest room holds up to 500 people
• Torrance Cultural Arts Center offers indoor and outdoor spaces for 60 to 502 guests.
• Torrance Marriott Redondo Beach has 40,416 sq. ft. of event space with its largest room holding up to 1,300 people
• South Coast Botanic Garden’s Upper Meadow holds up to 1,000 depending on setup

For events of any size, send us an RFP and our team can help you plan it.

Decide Which Type of Space Fits Your Event

Size is only part of the choice. The type of space shapes the day, so it helps to compare a few options.

Hotel meeting rooms suit working sessions. Six Torrance hotels host meetings on site, including the Torrance Marriott Redondo Beach, DoubleTree by Hilton Torrance South Bay, Bluestem Hotel, Miyako Hybrid Hotel, Courtyard Los Angeles Torrance/Palos Verdes and Sonesta ES Suites Torrance Redondo Beach, so attendees can stay and meet in one place.

Brewery and restaurant spaces suit social events and team evenings. Smog City offers private or shared space, and groups can bring their own catering or have the brewery arrange a food truck. Hermosa Brewing Company adds games to the mix. The Torrance Marriott’s 21 Square offers private and semi-private dining.

Outdoor spaces suit teams that want open-air settings. South Coast Botanic Garden lists corporate events on weekdays from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Torrance Beach is also a nice option, and just needs a County permit for group activities (covered below).

Civic and cultural spaces suit larger or more formal gatherings. The Torrance Cultural Arts Center offers multiple indoor and outdoor spaces.

Getting Your Group Here and Around

Torrance is easy for out-of-towners to reach, located only 10 miles from from LAX and 17 miles from Long Beach Airport.

Once your group is on the ground, getting around is simple.

Rideshares and rentals handle the heavy lifting, and the city’s Connect Torrance micro-transit app offers easy on-demand rides ($5 a trip, with the first six free) for hopping between hotels, restaurants and evening events.

Plan Group Dining and an Evening Out

Torrance has 400+ eateries and been called the Ramen Capital of Southern California, so there are plenty of options for group dinners.

For private events, Dave & Buster’s Torrance offers semi-private space for happy hours and small corporate events, private rooms and full venue rentals. Several breweries work with food trucks as well, so ask about food if you book your corporate event any of those venues.

Add Team Building

To balance out indoor working sessions, Torrance offers several settings for group bonding and active outings.

• Torrance Beach & The Strand: Torrance’s 1.5 miles of coastline works well for organized group beach volleyball tournaments or catered team wind-downs, while The Strand serves as a coastal route for group bike rides or sojourns along LA’s coast, through Venice Beach, Santa Monica up to Malibu. (Note: If you plan an organized activity on the sand involving setups like tables, chairs, or vendors, LA County Beaches and Harbors requires a Special Event Use Permit. Applications must be submitted 3 weeks to 90 days in advance.

• Nature & Culture Outings: Teams can explore the 212+ acres of open space throughout the City, including at the Madrona Marsh Preserve. Groups can tour on their own or opt for a private group docent tour through local cultural spots like the Torrance Art Museum, VEFA Gallery, or the Chen Art Gallery (home to one of the country’s largest collections of ancient Chinese art).

• Sports & Group Outings: For teams wanting to catch a game together during their trip, Torrance is within easy reach of major Los Angeles sports venues across the basin. Through Torrance Transit you can catch a ride to SoFi Stadium for football games for only $4 round trip.

Sample Itineraries for Corporate Events

Here are some suggested planning options built from the capacities above.

A 30-person team offsite. Hold the working session in a hotel room that fits your group, such as one of the 637 sq. ft. rooms at the Courtyard Los Angeles Torrance/Palos Verdes, which hold up to 40 each. Finish with an evening at Smog City, where you can reserve the patio and bring your own food or have the brewery arrange a food truck.

A 75-person company party. Book Hermosa Brewing Company’s private room or full brewery, which holds up to 100, and let the onsite games (pool, shuffleboard, darts, etc.) do the work of breaking the ice. If guests are traveling, pair it with rooms at a nearby hotel.

PHO HANA: TRY SOMETHING DIFFERENT

Pho Hana serves Vietnamese soup bowls, vermicelli and other regional favorites in a cozy setting on Hawthorne Boulevard. But there’s one dish in particular that makes this spot stand out from the pho crowd – Dumpling Pho, a unique find among pho restaurants. If you’re a dumpling lover, there’s more where that came from too. It’s proof that there’s always something new to try in Torrance’s diverse dining scene.

PHO HUE OI: DISCOVER THE FLAVORS OF HUE

There’s a story behind the food at Pho Hue Oi. The restaurant’s roots reach back to Hue, the former imperial capital of Vietnam, a city with distinctive culinary traditions shaped by its history and culture. The Duong family brought those traditions to Southern California when they established Hue Oi in Garden Grove in 2011. The restaurant later moved to Fountain Valley before the family expanded to the South Bay with Pho Hue Oi. Today, the Torrance location offers pho alongside a wider selection of Vietnamese favorites, making it a great stop for anyone who wants to explore the flavors and culinary heritage behind the menu.

PHO SOUTH BAY: KEEP IT CLASSIC

Sometimes, nothing beats a classic. At Pho South Bay, the Vietnamese staple takes center stage, with plenty of options for finding your perfect bowl. Start with the Signature Pho, or Phở Đặc Biệt, featuring rare steak, beef meatball, tripe and brisket. Or make things even heartier with oxtail or short rib. With plenty of choices for pho lovers, it’s an easy pick when a warm, satisfying bowl is exactly what you’re after.

SAIGON EATERY: GO FOR THE OXTAIL

Bring your appetite to Saigon Eatery. This casual Vietnamese spot on Western Avenue serves several versions of pho, including beef and filet mignon, but the oxtail deserves some extra attention. Oxtail Pho adds tender, slow-cooked beef to the classic noodle soup for an especially hearty meal. One sip, you’ll know.

SAIGON BISTRO: FIND A NEIGHBORHOOD FAVORITE

For a laid-back neighborhood pho stop, head to Saigon Bistro on Carson Street. The casual Vietnamese restaurant serves a variety of noodle soups, with choices ranging from classic beef combinations to chicken and seafood. It’s an easy place to settle in for a satisfying bowl, whether you’re stopping by for a quick lunch or winding down over dinner after a day exploring Torrance.

WHICH TORRANCE PHO SPOT IS RIGHT FOR YOU?

There’s no need to declare a single winner when Torrance offers a bowl for just about every craving.

• For something unique: Pho Hana, try the Dumpling Pho.
• For regional Vietnamese flavors: Pho Hue Oi, explore cuisine inspired by Hue.
• For a classic bowl: Pho South Bay, start with the Signature Pho.
• For something hearty: Saigon Eatery, make it Oxtail Pho.
• For a neighborhood favorite: Saigon Bistro, settle in with a classic noodle soup.

DISCOVER YOUR NEW FAVORITE BOWL

From creative takes like dumpling pho to recipes rooted in the culinary traditions of Hue, Vietnamese food in Torrance offers plenty to explore. And with more than 400 restaurants throughout the city, your pho stop can easily be the beginning of an entire day — or weekend — built around great food. The next time you’re craving pho, make Torrance your destination.

Fans of Buffy the Vampire Slayer will recognize Torrance High as the exterior of Sunnydale High. Its 1917 Mediterranean Revival architecture and grand brickwork give it a dramatic, slightly eerie presence.

Stroll through early 20th-century buildings, vintage storefronts, and narrow streets lit by old-style lamps. At dusk, the district takes on a moody atmosphere perfect for exploring after a Halloween event.

Pacific Electric Railroad Bridge
Built in 1913 by architect Irving Gill, this arched concrete bridge looms with historic industrial character. It’s not haunted by legend, but its imposing look makes a great spooky photo stop.

Torrance Historical Society & Museum
Step inside to see artifacts and stories from Torrance’s past. With its creaky floors and old photographs, even the museum has a touch of Halloween atmosphere.

Halloween Treats at Torrance Bakery

There’s no tricks, just treats at Torrance Bakery this Halloween, who’s getting into the spirit with a lineup of Halloween-decorated cookies and cupcakes. Pick from friendly favorites like Frankenstein and mummy head cakes, Jack Skellington cookies, and Halloween petit fours, or go for something downright terrifying with their Pennywise cake. There’s plenty more where that came from, so it’s worth stopping in to see the full seasonal case.
