Sea Music Festival

San Francisco Maritime National Historical Park

The Sea Music Festival returns to Aquatic Park in 2026, and it promises to be another unforgettable celebration of maritime culture on San Francisco Bay. Classic vessels including boats from the Master Mariners will once again gather in the lagoon, their bright flags and tall spars framing a weekend of sea chanteys, global maritime music, and living history on the water.

From impromptu dockside performances to historic boats underway in parade, the festival brings the Bay’s seafaring traditions vividly to life. Whether you arrive by land or by launch, expect a day filled with music, craftsmanship, and the unmistakable camaraderie of the waterfront—followed, of course, by a glowing sunset over Hyde Street Pier. Join us for a true San Francisco tradition in the making.
