Chicago Navy Pier Fireworks Cruise

Watch the Navy Pier fireworks
from the Chicago River

This 45 to 60-minute river fireworks cruise departs from the Wendella & Chicago Water Taxi dock. You'll watch the Navy Pier fireworks from the mouth of the Chicago River before returning to the dock. The fireworks take place every Wednesday and Saturday in summer.

Admire the river's architecture at sunset

Every cruise begins by sailing inland along the Chicago River to Wolf Point. Your guide offers light commentary focused on history and architecture as you admire Chicago's impressive buildings at sunset from the climate-controlled cabin or the breezy outdoor deck.
