Event
Remembering the Edmund Fitzgerald in Cleveland
A free historical presentation and memorial gathering at Great Lakes Brewing Company about the Edmund Fitzgerald’s final voyage and legacy.
About the event
A historical presentation on the final voyage
The Last Voyage: Remembering the Edmund Fitzgerald is built around the SS Edmund Fitzgerald’s final voyage on November 10, 1975. The program is an educational historical presentation and memorial gathering honoring the 29 crew members lost when the freighter sank on Lake Superior.
The presentation follows more than the sinking itself. It covers the freighter’s construction, career, final-voyage timeline, cultural legacy, and historical connection to Great Lakes cities, including Cleveland. That gives the talk a broader Great Lakes history frame while keeping the final voyage at the center.
Porter infusions and museum donation
Great Lakes Brewing Company is featuring special brewery infusions of Edmund Fitzgerald Porter during the event, including Thin Mint and Mole variations. Admission is free via reservation, with food and beer charged separately, so the presentation and the brewery offerings are handled as separate parts of the visit.
The beer component also connects to a museum donation. One dollar from every pint of Edmund Fitzgerald Porter sold during the event is donated to the Great Lakes Shipwreck Museum, which is identified with Paradise, Michigan.
Location and program timing
The event takes place at Great Lakes Brewing Company in Cleveland. The venue is listed as a bar at 2516 Market Ave, placing the program at the brewery rather than a museum or lecture hall.
The schedule includes seating before the presentation begins. The program concludes with a commemorative toast and a moment of silence at 7:14 PM, tying the closing portion of the event directly to its memorial purpose.
