This Week in Chicago: August 23-29

In less than 17 hours, twenty tall ships from around the world will sail into Navy Pier for a weeklong celebration.  Pepsi is sponsoring the Tall Ships Chicago 2010 tour this year and will be adding some exciting additions.  These majestic and historic ships will all be located at Navy Pier for the first time in history.  Guests will be able to board up to 12 of the ships and will also have the option to take a cruise onto Lake Michigan via five of the vessels.  For those who love ships, yachts and boats this event is perfect for you.

The ships will be docked at three Festival locations within Navy Pier all week.  Guests will have three different options for tickets to the event. The first option is general admission to the festival grounds, which includes viewing of all 20 ships.  The second option is a dockside boarding ticket, which will allow boarding of 12 ships along with general admission and dockside viewing.  The final ticket option is a sail-away ticket, allowing for a 60-90 minute sailing excursion on one of the historic tall ships.  This is the perfect event to drive up in one of our Chicago exotic car rentals.

Whether you have always had a fascination with early nautical vessels or just think pirate ships are cool Navy Pier will offer plenty of excitement this weekend.  Tickets are still available and the weather forecast should allow for some beautiful days of sailing on Lake Michigan.  This once-in-a-lifetime experience will be perfect for adults and children alike.  Head on out to Chicago’s famous Navy Pier all week long and catch some of the Tall Ships 2010 action.
