Fleet Week Houston

HOUSTON - In partnership with the United States Navy, Mayor John Whitmire today announced new dates for Fleet Week Houston. The weeklong event, postponed last year due to the federal government shutdown, will take place April 15-22, 2026.

The inaugural Fleet Week Houston will celebrate the men and women of the U.S. Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard who bravely serve our nation at sea domestically and around the world. Fleet Week Houston will also  showcase maritime service traditions, Houston’s role as a global port city, and create stronger connections between military personnel and the community.

What to Expect
Several military ships and more than 1,000 active-duty U.S. Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard service members will be in Houston for the celebration.

Public Activities 
Ship tours, demonstrations, expos, concerts, parades, educational outreach, and community service initiatives

Key Venues
Port of Houston, Downtown Houston (including City Hall, Post Houston and Discovery Green), East End, and surrounding districts and neighborhoods

"The City of Houston never forgot its commitment to hosting Fleet Week Houston, and I am excited about the new dates and honored to host the men and women who serve our country," said Mayor Whitmire. "As I said before, I'm going to take my grandkids to it, and I invite all Houstonians to join me to help welcome the armed forces members, experience firsthand the work they do, and participate in the events from ship tours to demonstrations. The Fleet Week Houston festivities will be unique and monumental." 

"The United States Navy is grateful for the hospitality and partnership provided by the City of Houston. We are excited to showcase the dedication and professionalism of our Naval forces,  especially as we celebrate the Nation's 250th Birthday.  We look forward to making Fleet Week Houston an unforgettable experience," Rear Admiral John W. Hewitt, Commander, Navy Region Southeast

Please visit the Fleet Week Houston website for updates on on official events, including times and locations.  

Fleet Week Houston is the latest of such events held for a number of years in cities including New York, San Francisco, San Diego, and Miami. These events are designed to introduce the communities to the branches of the sea services while allowing visiting members of those services to experience local culture and history.
