Imagine a ship that once embarked on a 47-year odyssey, an odyssey that began one week after the end of World War II and ended with the liberation of Kuwait in 1991. An odyssey that carried that ship into the crosscurrents of nearly every international crisis in the latter half of the twentieth century. An odyssey shared by 225,000 American sailors, most of them only a year or two out of high school.
Now imagine holding your event aboard that ship, the USS Midway – the longest serving U.S. Navy aircraft carrier of the twentieth century.
The USS Midway, now the most visited floating naval ship museum in the world, offers you the opportunity to create a lifelong memory for your guests – most of whom have never stepped foot on an aircraft carrier, much less one of the most famous carriers in U.S. Navy history.
Opened as a museum in mid-2004, Midway already has been named Event Site of the Year in a national poll of meeting planners conducted by Event Solutions magazine. A living piece of American history, coupled with flexibility as an event venue and an unparalleled location in San Diego, make Midway the best choice for your event. Welcome aboard!
