First Ever Public Ground Tours of World's Largest Zeppelin Memorial Day Weekend in Long Beach

For the first-time ever, the public is invited to go behind the scenes at Airship Ventures and take a ground tour of the world’s largest passenger airship, the Zeppelin Eureka.

Guided by Airship Ventures’ Zeppelin experts, these tours will allow guests to get up-close and personal with Eureka, which at 246-feet stretches longer than a standard Boeing 747, as well as learn about Zeppelin history and experience what it’s like to be on a real-life operating airfield. All ground tour guests will receive a $40 certificate that can be used toward purchasing a flightseeing experience aboard Eureka.

These behind-the-scenes tours will be offered in addition to airship flights from Long Beach Airport this holiday weekend, May 26-28, and allow airship fans access to the Zeppelin experience at a family-friendly pricepoint.

Flights and Ground Tours will be operated Memorial Day Weekend May 26-28 from Long Beach Airport
