San Francisco Fleet Week Air Show

The flying centrepiece of San Francisco Fleet Week, held annually since 1981 and flown over San Francisco Bay with the Golden Gate Bridge and the city skyline as a backdrop - among the most photographed settings of any air show anywhere. The Blue Angels headline, joined in 2026 by the USAF F-22 Raptor demonstration team and the Air Force Heritage Flight. The display is free to watch from the northern waterfront around Fisherman's Wharf and Marina Green, and sits within a wider week of ship tours, a humanitarian assistance exercise and a STEM programme.
