The 17th Annual SeaChange Summer Party
08.10.24
Oceana, the world's largest advocacy organization dedicated to ocean conservation, is hosting its 17th annual SeaChange Summer Party on Saturday, August 17th. The event will feature award-winning actor, advocate, and Oceana Board Member Ted Danson as the Master of Ceremonies and will honor SeaChange co-founder and Chair Emerita Valarie Van Cleave. Musical guest singer-songwriter Lisa Loeb will perform hits including “Stay (I Missed You),” celebrating its 30th anniversary this year.
Oceana’s SeaChange Summer Party has raised nearly $20 million to support the organization's crucial work in ensuring a healthy ocean for future generations.
Over the past 20 years, Oceana has successfully addressed global challenges such as overfishing, habitat destruction, and pollution. In California, the organization has secured protections to prevent whales and turtles from becoming entangled in fishing gear, safeguarded deep-sea corals and seafloor habitats, and enacted legislation addressing plastic pollution at its source. With oceans covering 70% of the planet, ocean health is vital to addressing pressing global issues, from climate change to food insecurity.
The 17th annual SeaChange Summer Party is co-chaired by Oceana Board Member Elizabeth Wahler and Gabe Serrato-Buelna. The event kicks off with a Blue Carpet reception from 5:30 pm to 6:30 pm.
Private Estate in Laguna Beach, CA (address available upon RSVP).

Habana Irvine Revives Popular Sunday Brunch Buffet
08.08.24
Habana at the Irvine Spectrum Center is announcing the revival of its popular Sunday Brunch Buffet, returning on August 11, 2024. Originally launched in April 2017, the brunch buffet at Habana was a hit, selling out nearly every Sunday until the restaurants had to close due to COVID-19. Modeled after a Cuban mansion, Habana Irvine transports guests to 1950s Cuba.
The brunch is returning with an exceptional spread of Cuban-inspired dishes, including plantain pancakes, a made-to-order omelette station, endless homemade Latin pastries, breakfast empanadas, whole roasted pig, paella, and more. Each dish features unique spices and homemade sauces, traditional Cuban plates such as roasted pork, and pairs perfectly with refreshing made-to-order cocktails like the crowd-favorite Mojito 1995, evoking a warm afternoon in Cuba.
Habana Irvine’s Sunday Brunch Buffet will be available starting on July 28, 2024, for a soft opening and officially reopening on August 11, 2024. Brunch will be offered weekly on Sundays, from 10 AM to 4 PM.
708 Spectrum Center Dr Suite 708, Irvine. (949) 419-0100
