SeaChange is Oceana’s annual summer fundraising event, bringing together supporters of ocean conservation for an evening celebrating the organization’s work and victories. Its 19th annual SeaChange Summer Party is scheduled for Saturday, July 25, 2026, in Laguna Beach, California. The event features a Blue Carpet arrival overlooking the Pacific, a sustainably sourced seated dinner, an auction, live entertainment, and dancing. Guests include celebrities, philanthropists, tastemakers, and leaders from Southern California, alongside representatives of major media outlets.

SeaChange has raised more than $23 million in support of Oceana’s campaigns to protect and restore the world’s oceans. The event offers several ways to participate, including purchasing tables and tickets, becoming a partner, donating to Oceana, and learning about ways to get involved. Its 2026 program lists Kate Walsh as an honoree, June Diane Raphael as master of ceremonies, and Rakiem Walker as musical guest. Recognized by Modern Luxury’s Riviera as Orange County’s “Best Summer Soirée,” SeaChange combines a celebratory gathering with support for marine life and ocean habitats worldwide.
