USS Midway Museum Gather on the world’s most visited floating naval ship museum
Experience life at sea without ever leaving port. The longest-serving U.S. Navy aircraft carrier of the 20th century, the USS Midway, has played host to events in San Diego Bay since 2004 as the USS Midway Museum. And since the 68-year-old carrier is less than one mile from the San Diego Convention Center, groups won’t have to go very far to travel back in time. The carrier’s flight deck — featuring 24
restored aircraft — offers 50,000 square feet of space and 360-degree views of the San Diego skyline for after-hours events of up to 4,000 guests. Smaller indoor spaces, like the hangar deck, oficers’ wardroom, “Dirty Shirt Locker,” and “Potato Locker,” make for
authentically themed settings that could never be replicated in a ballroom. And on-site conveniences, from parking to private tours, help make every event a smooth sailing.
