Protocol Overview
Within this office, the Protocol section plays a key role in managing diplomatic relationships and representing the city with professionalism, respect, and cultural awareness on the global stage.
Whether hosting international delegations, coordinating official visits, or supporting cross-cultural initiatives, the Protocol team ensures Long Beach presents itself as a trusted, capable and welcoming partner. This work strengthens international ties, opens doors for economic and cultural exchange, and highlights the city’s leadership in areas such as sustainability, innovation, and inclusive development.
Long Beach's unique blend of global industries, diverse communities, and strategic location in Southern California make us a global leader, and we’re working to build bridges that benefit our city and our partners around the world.
If you’re a local organization exploring international collaboration, a foreign dignitary preparing for a visit, or a global partner seeking connection – we invite you to engage with us and be part of Long Beach’s international story.
