Chicago Skyline Sunset & Fireworks Cruise

Experience one of Chicago’s most spectacular summer evenings from the water aboard our Chicago Skyline Sunset & Fireworks Cruise. Join Chicago Photography Classes for a unique 3-hour photography boat adventure (not aboard the USS Minnow – for those that understand the reference😉) as we capture the city at its most beautiful—from golden hour to the dazzling Navy Pier fireworks display.

We will meet at 6:30 PM on Wednesday, July 15th, with departure scheduled for approximately 7:00 PM. As we cruise through the Chicago River lock and into Lake Michigan, you’ll have the opportunity to photograph the iconic Chicago skyline bathed in the warm light of sunset. As twilight settles over the city, we’ll position ourselves for breathtaking views of the skyline illuminated against the evening sky.

The highlight of the evening will be the Navy Pier Fireworks Show, where participants will enjoy front-row views from the water while photographing colorful bursts of light over the lake with Chicago’s world-famous skyline serving as a dramatic backdrop.

Whether you’re interested in refining your cityscape photography, learning techniques for photographing fireworks, or simply enjoying an unforgettable evening on the water with fellow photography enthusiasts, this cruise offers a unique perspective of Chicago that we love to photograph.
