Brace yourself as the MD24 resurfaces in 2025! The Moby Dick 24-Hour Marathon, hosted by the San Francisco Maritime National Park Association and San Francisco Maritime National Historical Park, is a secret San Francisco tradition, steeped in both maritime history and theatrical innovation! Whether you’re a Melville scholar or you’ve never even cracked the cover, the MD24 makes the colossal novel Moby Dick feel lively, accessible, and dare we say– FUN!
Beginning at twelve noon on Saturday October 18 to noon on Sunday October 19, 2025, the nonstop cover-to-cover marathon turns it all into the hottest afterparty in town!
Come for a chapter, or spend the night in the spectacularly restored Art Deco-style landmark that is the Maritime Museum Building! Join us for this spirited, enthusiastic examination of what Melville continues to mean to us– and how we resonate daily with some of the most complex characters in American literature.
