20th Birthday Boat Party

Join Us: Chiditarod’s 20th Birthday Boat Cruise Celebration

Get ready to mark your calendars and dust off your finest attire! Chiditarod is turning 20, and we’re throwing an epic boat cruise to celebrate two decades of incredible fun, community, and impact – and most importantly, to celebrate YOU, our amazing supporters!

Let’s CELEBRATE

  • Date: Saturday, September 27, 2025
  • Wardrobe Vision: Dress like a million dollars!
  • Ticket Price: $100 (Specifically for the boat party; afterparty at Reggie’s is free)

This event is purely a celebration, not a fundraiser. We’ve accomplished so much in 20 years, and the ticket price goes entirely to covering the cost of this fantastic boat party. It’s our way of saying thank you!

The Epic Day Awaits

Prepare for a day packed with celebration, laughter, and unforgettable moments:

  • 11:00 AM: Meet at Navy Pier (exact location emailed to ticket holders)
  • 11:45 AM – 12:20 PM: Boarding begins
  • 12:30 PM: Doors close, and the boat sets sail!
  • 12:30 PM – 2:30 PM: Enjoy Awards, delicious Food, refreshing Drinks, Dancing, and so much more on the cruise!
  • 2:30 PM: Deboard the boat and head to Reggies for the Official After Party.
  • Transportation: Reggies Busses will be available to take you to the Free After Party.
  • 3:00 PM – 6:00 PM: Continue the celebration at the Afterparty at Reggies, both on the Roof Top and inside. No Ticket Needed
  • After 6:00 PM: Choose your own ending to the evening! The Coreganizers haven’t planned anything late-night, but we welcome your ideas if you want to invite us to keep the party going!

Important Things to Know:

  • Weather Policy: This event is rain or shine! There’s no such thing as bad weather, just poor wardrobe choices.
  • Food: Food on the boat is included in your ticket. The buffet will accommodate vegan, vegetarian, and meat eaters.
  • Drinks: Drinks are not included in the ticket price. We chose this to support everyone’s individual drinking/non-drinking styles by not including drinks in the ticket price. 
  • Transportation to Reggies: Transportation to Reggies for the After Party is included.
  • Parking: We recommend using SpotHero or ride-sharing services.

We can’t wait to celebrate 20 years of Chiditarod with you!
