Chicago Air & Water ShowSaturday August 18th or Sunday August 19th 11:00am - 4:00pm
The Chicago Air and Water show is the largest free show of it's kind in the United States. It will include exhibitions by the U.S. Navy Blue Angels and the U.S. Army Parachute Team known as the Golden Knights. This is one of the premier events of the summer and the dates fill up quickly. Thursday the 12th and Friday the 13th are both afternoons when the squads normally practice for the weekend event. Many years the practice runs have been just as entertaining as the show due to the fact that the squads will repeat tricks over and over to perfect the timing. Both of these days make for excellent charter events combining the joy of a cruise with the excitement of the Air and Water Show. Request information about a cruise. Information Links: City of Chicago Office of Special Events History of the Air and Water ShowPublic transportation or taxi is highly recommended for special event dates. If traveling by Taxi, stress to be taken to the Harbor Master House on East Waldron, not the Burnham Harbor Yacht Club (The yacht club is a good 25-minute walk away). |
