Drop Anchor at Navy Pier
CGI After Dark returns at the iconic Navy Pier in Chicago, and this year, we’re setting sail with a Yacht Rock theme. Trade the show floor for the open water as we close out the evening with smooth grooves, great company, and an unforgettable night on the lakefront. Whether you’re catching up with familiar faces or making new connections, CGI After Dark is the perfect setting to unwind, network, and let the good vibes roll!
From the moment you arrive, you will be immersed in experiences designed to surprise and delight. Sip champagne, strike a pose, and get your hands a little dirty. This is the kind of evening that gets better with every hour and leaves you with stories worth telling.
Dress the part and bring your best moves, you’re in for a night that’s smooth sailing from start to finish!
Taking the stage for the evening is the Yacht Lobsters, a premier Yacht Rock band known for bringing the smooth, sun-soaked sounds of the genre to life.
Get ready to groove along to the classic hits that defined an era, performed with the kind of effortless cool that’s perfect for a night on the lakefront.

Whether it’s a Christopher Cross classic or a Steely Dan staple, we want to hear what gets you in the nautical spirit. Submit your request below, and we’ll do our best to make it happen.
