Bridge day is the one day out of the year that the bridge is closed to traffic and we celebrate the bridge, typically, 80 to 100,000 people show up, 400 people bring their parachutes to jump. You can rappel from the catwalk. It's a big festival.

The views from the catwalk are spectacular, they began to piece the bridge together back in June of 1974 and three years and four months later, at a cost of 37 million dollars, the bridge was open to the public.
