Happy 4th of July!

We invite you to come down to the waterfront to enjoy the day! A fireworks display will be launched from two barges on the Bay beginning at 9:30 pm— one located at PIER 39 and another located at Aquatic Park. Our neighborhood restaurants, activities, and retail shops in Fisherman's Wharf WILL be open. Fireworks are best viewed from the Fisherman's Wharf area. Please note that seating at Aquatic Park may be limited due to construction, so please arrive early and visit other public viewing areas, like Pier 39 and the Fisherman's Wharf Promenade. Free musical entertainment is scheduled from 2pm to 9:15pm at the Crab Wheel Plaza on Jefferson and Taylor streets. 

Please note: Dress appropriately for the weather, which can get cold and windy. A good jacket/blanket can help keep you warm.

To make your day more enjoyable, we suggest that you leave your pets at home. We don't want our furry friends to get spooked by the large crowds and noise of the fireworks display.

Getting to Fisherman's Wharf

City of San Francisco parking lots are available throughout the Fisherman’s Wharf area. The closest indoor lots are the Anchorage Square Parking Garage (Jones & Beach), the Ghirardelli Square Parking Garage (Polk & Beach), or the Pier 39 Parking Garage (Stockton & Beach). Special event rates may apply.

Traffic in and around Fisherman's Wharf is expected to be heavy. We highly recommend taking public transportation. If you do choose to drive, remember to Park Smart! If you love it, don't leave it. Take all valuables with you. Don't tempt a car thief by leaving cell phones, sunglasses, luggage, passports, or other items in your car.
