Fleet Week Parade of Ships

Come see the Fleet enter the Bay under the Golden Gate Bridge as the visiting ships steam towards their ports, and Liberty Call for our honored Sailors and Marines. San Francisco Fleet Week hosts the largest Parade of Ships on the West Coast. The SF Fire Department will provide lead escort with their fire boat shooting jets of water into the air to celebrate the Fleet’s arrival.

After the Parade of Ships, you're welcome to join us to walk to the Marina Green Humanitarian Assistance Village, an open-air interactive exhibition of the military’s disaster relief equipment that could be used to help after major disasters, like an earthquake. You can see some of the heavy machinery, communications equipment, search and rescue capabilities, underwater inspection and repair, field hospitals, and much more.  You can go explore on your own or invite some others to join you to check out the exhibits. 

If you want, you can also stick around for the Air Show, headlined by The U.S. Navy Blue Angels. Typically the air show starts mid-afternoon, contingent on weather & fog conditions. You may want to bring ear plugs if you plan to stick around for the air show ... which is HIGHLY recommended as it's fun to watch!
