The three-day event will feature more than 150 luxury boats and yachts, 70 exhibitors showcasing the latest in marine technology and services, and a full schedule of live demos, workshops, and family-friendly activities. Attendees can enjoy local food, on-water fun, and expert panels that cover a wide range of boating topics.

"Partnering with the Coast Guard Foundation means more than just putting on a great event," shared Anthony Trimino, CEO of Revel Republic, the team behind the Chicago International Boat Show. "It's our way of supporting the Coast Guard community and showing appreciation for their service."

When purchasing tickets, guests have the option to add a $1 donation to the Coast Guard Foundation. Every dollar supports the Coast Guard Foundation's full mission that includes scholarships and education grants for Coast Guard children and spouses, emergency relief for Coast Guard families when natural disasters strike, and morale and wellness programs that strengthen the entire Coast Guard community.
