San Diego 9/11 Memorial Stair Climb
The San Diego 9/11 Memorial Stair Climb takes place on September 5, 2026, at the Hilton San Diego Bayfront on Park Boulevard in San Diego, California. The event gathers participants to perform a stair climb in memory of first responders who died on 9/11/01.
Proceeds from the event benefit FirefighterAid, a 501(c)(3) charity that provides assistance to firefighters and their families in crisis and promotes awareness of firefighter health and safety issues and their impacts on families and communities. The event page lists a fundraising total of $3,426.62.
Participants choose a first responder from the event’s list to climb in honor of. The organizer displays official agency headshots on climber badges, and will assign a hero if a participant does not select one so all listed heroes are represented. Organizers note they cannot process week-of climb cancellations.
The climb is presented by GOVX and the San Diego Hilton Bayfront. Other named supporters include Local 145, AMR, and Sycuan Casino. The event materials reference teams, volunteer roles, and fundraising leaderboards tied to FirefighterAid. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
