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 procession of ships can be seen from the Golden Gate Bridge to the Bay Bridge, with the reviewing stand at the Marina Green.

San Francisco Fire Department will provide lead escort with their fire boat shooting jets of water into the air to celebrate the Fleet’s arrival.

K9 Heroes

Whether in the field or in the home, military and civilian working dogs save and change lives. Fleet Week celebrates these K9 Heroes.

In the center of San Francisco at Duboce Park, regional and national K9 services bring their stars to demonstrate their abilities, including search and rescue, therapy tasks, drug and food detection, law enforcement, and bomb detection.

The event brings dog-loving attendees, vendor booths from pet services providers as well as various agencies.

Bring your family and furry friends and see how these four-legged friends have become heroes to so many.
