She’s come a long way in her 147 years! The Official Tall Ship of Texas, the 1877 ELISSA annual birthday party, returns to our Galveston Historic Seaport. Your ticket includes complimentary craft beer courtesy of Saint Arnold Brewing, food, custom birthday cake, live music from Houston’s Buxton, and a shipload more from us at #GalvestonHistory.
To sweeten the celebration, one lucky attendee will win a spot to sail onboard ELISSA in April 2025!
GIFT DONATIONS
Keeping this historic vessel actively sailing takes thousands of manhours and volunteers. You can help with that work by considering a donation. Donation boxes will be on site for those wishing to contribute. Elissa has also created a “Wish List” of items below. If you choose to bring a gift for ELISSA, you are welcome to an early admission at 6:30 PM and a complimentary champagne toast at 6:50 PM in the Elissa Room upstairs above the Ship to Shore Museum.
