About this organization
Mission
The USS Missouri Memorial Association is dedicated to preserving the battleship Missouri and sharing her story and place in history.
About
What began in 1994 as a project for Hawaii's civic leaders, transitioned into the USS Missouri Memorial Association. The board of directors assumed long-term responsibility for the retired USS Missouri (BB-63) which opened to the public on January 29, 1999 and has since attracted over 8.5 million visitors from around the world. The association focuses on three core strategic areas: preservation and restoration, education, and community outreach. Recognized as one of the state's top five paid visitor destinations, the battleship Missouri Memorial is a significant contributor to the economic vitality of Hawaii's visitor industry, the largest driver of the state's GDP. Beyond preservation of the ship, the association looks toward enhanced educational programming and pier upgrades to sustain a world-class visitor experience that is compelling and relevant. In March 2017, the association and the U.S. Navy entered into a 25-year lease ensuring a permanent home in Pearl Harbor for the battleship Missouri. With the lease in place, the association finally has the opportunity to realize the long-held vision to make the battleship Missouri Memorial the finest historic ship attraction in the world.
