Spend your 4th of July (10AM to 5PM) in the Bay’s best location for the day with music, food & drinks, tours, and more!
Please join the USS Hornet as we celebrate Independence Day with a big Steel Beach BBQ on the Flight Deck with music, food and beverages!
The Flight Deck will be converted into a Steel Beach BBQ Party! We will have music playing, food and drinks to purchase, tables and chairs, free tours of the Island (normally a $12 charge!), some games for you to play and in the afternoon, a Flyover by the Memorial Squadron!
In the Hangar Bay, all the normally accessible areas of the ship will be available for self-touring. You can see the rest of our aircraft and Apollo program artifacts (including our Apollo Block 1 capsule, the Mobile Quarantine Facility and the SeaKing helicopter used in the filming of Apollo 13), and our newest acquisition: An F/A-18C!
On the 2nd Deck you can visit the Torpedo Workshop, Sick Bay, Officer’s Wardroom, exhibits such as African-Americans in the Military, Women in the Military, Air Group 11 and many more!
On the Pier we will have a collection of Military Vehicles that will come over after the 4th of July Parade!
We also will be closing early enough that you will have time to go to your favorite spot to watch the fireworks. Note: There will be NO Fireworks at the USS Hornet.
