Great American Lobster Fest 2025
Get ready for the Great American Lobster Fest – the ultimate seafood celebration on Chicago’s iconic Navy Pier, held the same weekend as the impressive Chicago Air and Water Show.
Sink your claws into fresh Maine lobster flown in daily from the East Coast, sip on ice-cold drinks, browse craft vendors, and jam to live music performances – all while fighter jets and aerial acrobatics thunder overhead in a sky-high spectacle you won’t find anywhere else.
Not into seafood? We’ve got you covered with plenty of non-seafood favorites, from BBQ to sweet treats, to please every palate. It’s a family-friendly festival on the lakefront with breathtaking views of Lake Michigan and the Chicago skyline as your backdrop, setting the scene for an unforgettable summer weekend.
