At Navy Pier, the Centennial Wheel is a 200-foot-tall Ferris wheel that will lift you above the promenade for a calm, panoramic experience. The ride includes seating in one of the enclosed gondolas, each of which will hold up to eight guests and is designed for year-round comfort.
From the top, you will see sweeping views of Lake Michigan and the Chicago skyline. Along the way you will have clear sightlines for photos and a fresh perspective on the pier and the lakeshore. The enclosed cabins will let you enjoy the scene comfortably in different seasons, whether the air is warm or crisp.
