The Pacific International Livestock Exposition was an annual event that took place in Portland, Oregon, beginning around 1910. O. M. Plummer was the exposition's longtime organizer and manager up to 1945. The exposition was housed in a complex of halls in North Portland on the present Marine Drive. During World War II, the buildings were used as an assembly point during the U.S. government's forced relocation of Japanese Americans to incarceration camps.
