The USS Midway Aircraft Carrier sits in San Diego at the Navy Pier welcoming and enriching guests from around the world. Its patriotic service and military operations are brought to life throughout this interactive museum. Relive the legacy of the longest-serving aircraft carrier in U.S. Naval history-47 years! “Midway Magic” became a recognized term describing the amazing tenacity of the Midway and its crew. When other ships broke down or headed for port, the Midway continued to respond, to perform from the end of WWII all the way through Operation Desert Storm in 1991. Self-guided audio tours introduce Midway veterans who lived or worked on the ship and visitors have access to the hangar deck, second deck and flight deck, engineering, mess deck, berthing spaces, officer’s country, flight deck and optional flight simulators. More than 60 exhibits and 24 restored aircraft offer educational information and an inspiring look into military history. Visitors can also stop by the Midway Aircraft Carrier Museum Gift Shop and dine at the Fantail Café.

Tickets may also be purchased from ticket sellers in Old Town at stop A.
