Join Erie in a three-day maritime celebration. Climb aboard and explore one of 14 tall ships, sail the day away on select ships, or enjoy many other festival highlights including live music and entertainment, children’s activities, a festival marketplace, food vendors, a beer garden and much more.
Don't forget to check out the Maritime Marketplace at the Bayfront Convention Center featuring local photography, fine art, crafts, jewelry, pottery, health services, educational expositions and adventures, and more. You’ll also be able to explore Lake Erie shipwrecks, the history of the Bluenose II or see the 20-foot dugout canoe at interactive educational exhibits open throughout the festival.
