The 2023 Chicago Air and Water show will be held along the lakefront on August 19 and 20. Here's what you need to know before you go.
The 2023 Chicago Air and Water show will be held along the lakefront on August 19 and 20, for its 64th year. The event began in 1959 and is one of the largest free events of its kind, with over a million spectators coming to watch the show ever year.
Supplemental bus service will be provided on the 72 North Avenue and 151 Sheridan bus routes. Buses on the 145 Wilson/Michigan Express, 146 Inner Drive/Michigan Express and 147 Outer Drive routes also have stops near the activities. You can also take the 22 Clark or 36 Broadway buses to North and Clark, within walking distance of North Avenue beach.
"We train year-round on piloting our parachutes to try to hit this target over and over again from our certification down in Florida for our entire show year. And it's hard to identify at first," said Staff Sgt. Nicholas Orozco of the Golden Knights. Dacy, a retired American Airlines pilot from Harvard, Ill., is one of the only female civilian pilots performing in air shows today.
