Fleet Week 2018 in Port Everglades - Fort Lauderdale

Habe gerade meine Einladung erhalten: April 30 - May 6, 2018

Fleet Week Port Everglades findet statt vom Montag den 30. April 30 bis Sonntag den 6 May

Die U.S. Navy hat bereits 6 Schiffe angemeldet.

Die US Coast Guard hat zwei Schiffe angemeldet





• Public ship tours will be offered Tuesday, May 1 - Saturday, May 5. Due to security regulations at Port Everglades, advance online registration is required to enter the port and tour ships. Online ship tour registration will open during the first week of April.


• The dates and instructions will be announced via the Broward Navy Days, Inc. email list (sign up on our webpage at the bottom of the home page screen, if you have not already), website and Facebook site. Please do not contact us requesting early registration.


• Groups must follow the same process as the public. We regret that, due to high demand, we may not be able to accommodate everyone who wishes to tour the ships. The Navy and Coast Guard impose strict limits on the number of visitors each day and tours fill very quickly.


• We look forward to seeing you at Fleet Week Port Everglades 2018.
