Yes! We want to make your Fleet Week experience seamless. Our Fleet Week Package features everything you need, including a $25 Uber gift card for easy transportation to the waterfront, a curated in-room snack pack for pre-show fuel, and a late checkout so you can rest the morning after the festivities.
San Francisco Fleet Week takes place from October 4–12, 2026. While celebrations, neighborhood concerts, and military expos happen all over the city, the main events—including the Air Show and Fleet Fest—take place along the northern waterfront near Fisherman’s Wharf, Pier 27, and the Marina Green.
Because parking near the waterfront is highly limited during Fleet Week, we highly recommend leaving the car behind!
- By Rideshare: An Uber or Lyft takes about 20 minutes to get to Fisherman's Wharf or Pier 27.
- By Public Transit (Muni): Hop on the historic F Market & Wharves streetcar or the 30 Marina Express bus; both will get you to the waterfront in roughly 30 minutes.
- By Bike: If you want to enjoy the city views, grab a nearby Lyft Bike. It’s a scenic 15-minute ride to the waterfront events.
