Guide to San Francisco Fleet Week 2024
Fleet Week in San Francisco gets underway beginning Oct. 7 with events all across the city, highlighted by the Parade of Ships under the Golden Gate Bridge Friday and culminating in the signature weekend airshows over the SF Bay waterfront featuring the U.S. Navy Blue Angels.
The annual event honors the contributions of the men and women of the U.S. military and has become an integral part of the city's local culture and economy. San Francisco Fleet Week also features a unique training and education program that brings together civilian and military forces to develop and share best practices in humanitarian assistance, with works showcased in public and invitation-only events.
CBS News Bay Area will be spotlighting Fleet Week events as well as stories about the sailors who serve in the Navy through the weekend, with live coverage of both the Parade of Ships Friday morning at 11 a.m. and the Friday afternoon Blue Angels airshow at 3 p.m.
