The Firefighter Summer Games kicked off in 1972 with a simple but powerful idea: bring California’s firefighters together for some friendly competition, physical challenge, and unforgettable camaraderie. What started as a way to promote fitness and share ideas has grown into a time-honored tradition that celebrates the fire service, teamwork, and good old-fashioned fun.

Over the years, the Summer Games have traveled across the state, lighting up communities in Oakland, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Davis, Irvine, Santa Clara, San Jose, San Diego, Palo Alto, Bakersfield, Santa Ana, Ventura, Concord, Sacramento, and Livermore/Pleasanton. Each host city adds its own energy, welcoming firefighters from across California and turning the Games into a true community event.

The Games are governed by the California Firemen’s Athletic Association, with a local association bidding for the honor of hosting and bringing this legendary event to their hometown. It’s more than a competition—it’s a chance to represent your department, connect with the fire family, and create memories that last long after the final event.

The Summer Games feature multiple areas of competition, all of which are outlined in the Events section of this website. Whether you’re here to compete, support your crew, or just soak in the atmosphere, the Firefighter Summer Games are all about pride, brotherhood, and having a great time together. 🚒🔥
