Spend Veterans Day at Liberty Station: A Perfect Blend of History and Fun
With Veterans Day at Liberty Station approaching, discover a living tribute to our military heritage in a place transformed from a 1923 Naval Training Center into the vibrant heart of our city’s arts and culture scene.
History Meets Modern Day Fun
While the naval heritage runs deep through Liberty Station’s bones, today it’s buzzing with energy from over 30 restaurants, art galleries, and museums. The best part? Most of the good stuff, including access to historic buildings and open spaces, won’t cost you a dime.
Adventures for Everyone
Whether you’re chasing kids through 48 acres of grassy parkland, hunting for your next favorite dish at Liberty Public Market, or paddle boarding along the waterfront, there’s something here for every crew member.
History buffs can dive into the past with the “A Walk Back Through Time” self-guided audio tour, while the little ones might prefer music classes or waterfront yoga.
Military Heritage Come to Life
Want to experience what life was like for naval recruits? Check out the Life of an NTC Recruit exhibit at the Dick Laud NTC Command Center—it’s a fascinating glimpse into the 12-week journey from civilian to sailor.
Don’t miss the USS Recruit exhibit either; this landlocked training vessel has some pretty amazing stories to tell.
