  • The Centennial Wheel is the state-of-the-art centerpiece of Chicago's vibrant Navy Pier
  • Get three spins, or 1080°, worth of revolutions in the Chicago sky
  • Gondolas are air-conditioned in summer and heated in winter, for perfect comfort

The iconic Centennial Wheel on Chicago's Navy Pier offers some of the best views of The City of the Big Shoulders. This nearly 200-foot wheel takes viewers round and round in air-conditioned comfort. The Centennial Wheel, opened in May 2016, is 46 feet (14 m) taller than the Ferris wheel it replaced. That's progress, baby!

Down at Chicago's Navy Pier, the Centennial Wheel is your chance to get up high in the Chicago sky for the best (and most comfortable) views of the city.

With LED lighting, air-conditioning, and a unique vantage point, this attraction is one of the most pleasant ways to see Chicago's world famous skyline.

Plus, with three revolutions in the state-of-the-art gondolas, you'll get plenty of revolutionary bang for your amusement buck.

They don't tell you that it's closed. I bought my tickets and according to this it would be open on Sunday, March 3 and it was not open. I didn't receive any refund, very bad experience.
