Fleet Week New York 2024 officially begins with the Parade of Ships arriving in New York Harbor on May 22, with Navy ships gliding along the Hudson River past the Statue of Liberty and Manhattan.
Now in its thirty sixth yr, the annual event brings hundreds of energetic military personnel to town for every week of boat cruises, live shows, demonstrations and other interactive events from May 22-28, 2024.
New Yorkers can find the ships on the Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum, Pier 88 South, Pier 90 North and Homeport Pier on Staten Island.
