CHICAGO – All Hands on Deck! Cruising into the Windy City January 10-14, the 2024 Discover® Boating Chicago Boat Show, in partnership with Progressive® Insurance, a nearly century-old tradition is returning. As one of Chicago’s most iconic events and a Midwest boating destination, the 2024 Chicago Boat Show is ready to welcome boating enthusiasts and newcomers to discover why life is better on the water.
The Discover® Boating Chicago Boat Show hosts everything needed for a fun day on the water – from sales on hundreds of the newest power boats and latest in boating products, to fishing gear, accessories and marine electronics.
