Fairmont Breakers Long Beach, at 210 East Ocean Boulevard, has 10,000 sq ft of event space in a restored 1920s landmark, led by the 2,915 sq ft Poseidon Ballroom. Above the Line provides audio, video, lighting and LED for meetings, galas and weddings.
The hotel pairs two ballrooms and a floor of meeting rooms with a rooftop bar and the Sky Room. We size sound, video and lighting to each space from the hotel's own chart.
Room names, sizes and capacities come from the hotel's Events page at fairmont-breakers.com. Photos are the hotel's own. Production notes describe a typical Above the Line setup for each space.
