Overview

Watch Chicago, Illinois light up the night sky from the water on a tiki-themed river cruise that pairs front-row fireworks views with a full bar and tropical island atmosphere.

🎆 Float along the Chicago River and stake out an enviable vantage point for the city's fireworks show

🍹 Sip cocktails, beers, and wines from the onboard tiki bar as the city skyline glows around you on this evening cruise

🏙️ Take in iconic Chicago architecture by night before the fireworks begin, with both air-conditioned indoor seating and open-deck space available

🛥️ Join up to 50 fellow guests on this 90-minute ticketed cruise, departing from and returning to the Chicago Riverwalk

There's no better seat for Chicago's fireworks than the middle of the river, and that's exactly where the Tiki Fireworks Cruise puts you. Island Party Boat's evening tiki cruise sets off from the Chicago Riverwalk and cruises through the city's waterways while the skyline puts on its night time best. When the fireworks begin, the boat positions for a spectacular view that most visitors on land simply can't match.

Between the island-themed décor, the full bar serving tropical cocktails and drinks, and the warm glow of Chicago's architecture reflected in the water, this is an evening that earns its own highlight reel. The boat accommodates up to 50 guests, with both a climate-controlled interior lounge and open-deck seating, so comfort is covered no matter the weather.
