USS Hornet 4th of July Celebration
Come join us for a fun-filled Steel Beach Party & BBQ aboard the USS Hornet on July 4th with food & drink, games, tours, arts & crafts fair.
Spend your 4th of July (10AM to 5PM) in the Bay's best location for the day with music, food & drinks, tours, arts & crafts and more!
Please join the USS Hornet as we celebrate Independence Day with a big Steel Beach BBQ with music, food and beverages!
The ship will be converted into a Steel Beach BBQ Party! We will have music playing (Swingin' Blue Stars, King Tide Players), food and drinks to purchase, tables and chairs, free tours of the Island (normally a $12 charge!), some games for you to play and an arts and crafts fair next to the ship on the pier!
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!
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.
