Fleet Week San Diego is a week-long event that provides a means for the local and regional public to get exposure to the United States Sea Services; Navy, Marine Corps and Coast Guard. Throughout the week the services host public ship tours, showcase capabilities and engage in community relations projects around the San Diego area.
In 1997, after extensive planning and team building, Fleet Week San Diego was born. Nurtured by the Chamber of Commerce, the annual series of events grew quickly into a recognized feature of the region’s annual calendar. By 2001, Fleet Week San Diego had outgrown its home in the Chamber and was incorporated as The San Diego Fleet Week Foundation, a California Public Benefit Corporation and non-profit under the provisions of section 501(c)(3) of the IRS Code.
As a Public Benefit Corporation, the San Diego Fleet Week Foundation donates proceeds in excess of operating expenses from Fleet Week San Diego to charities that provide critical support to military families. show less
