About Chicago Air & Water Show
The Chicago Air & Water Show is the largest free air show in the United States, held every August along the North Side lakefront — featuring the U.S. Navy Blue Angels, military jets, parachute teams, and breathtaking water stunts with the city skyline as a backdrop.
Over 2 million spectators line the lakefront from Oak Street Beach to Montrose Beach each year. The best viewing spots go fast. Knowing where to stand, what to bring, and where to eat and drink before and after makes all the difference.
