SAN DIEGO (October 20, 2025) – Naval Base San Diego has cancelled the “Meet the Fleet at 32nd Street,” a San Diego Fleet Week public event previously scheduled for Saturday, November 1, 2025, due to the continued lapse in appropriations resulting from the ongoing federal government shutdown.
Due to the continued lapse in appropriations resulting from the ongoing federal government shutdown, Naval Base San Diego is unable to host or support public outreach events currently. As such, this year’s Meet the Fleet at 32nd Street will be canceled in accordance with Department of the Navy and Department of War guidance on non-essential activities during the funding lapse.
“We understand this event is a major highlight for the San Diego community and for our Sailors; the decision to cancel was not made lightly,” said Capt. Brian Bungay, commanding officer, Naval Base San Diego. “We want to ensure compliance with federal policy while also providing timely notification to community partners, schools, vendors, and families who had planned to support. Meet the Fleet at 32nd Street remains one of our favorite ways to connect the Navy with our incredible community, and we look forward to hosting it again in the future. We appreciate the community’s continued support and understanding.”
Currently, there is no rescheduled date for “Meet the Fleet at 32nd Street.” Naval Base San Diego remains committed to transparency and will share additional updates if circumstances change or future opportunities for public engagement become available.
Established in 1922, Naval Base San Diego is the largest West coast naval installation and principal homeport of the Pacific Fleet, supporting more than 60 combatant and auxiliary surface ships and more than 250 shore commands.
