Door County Classic & Wooden Boat Show

Bring your crew, friends and family for boating and fun on Sturgeon Bay’s historic working waterfront. On display at the Show are beautiful boats to admire, some professionally built and maintained, others the work of talented amateurs. Vessels range from canoes to kayaks, sailboats, fiberglass classics, and glorious mahogany runabouts.

Registered boaters showcase their boats for the weekend and compete for awards and ribbons. Boats are displayed on the Maritime Museum grounds, along the waterfront and the lawn.

The Show also includes the hilarious and competitive Float-or-Swim Boat Building Challenge. Watch as 2-person teams work feverishly with limited materials on Saturday to craft a one-of-a-kind boat that will float during the “sea trials” on Sunday…hopefully!

Festival hours are 10am-5pm Saturday and 10am-4pm Sunday. Shop the Boat House Sale, learn from U.S. Coast Guard demonstrations, view beautiful boats and take a ride, and enjoy tasty food and drinks! The Door County Classic & Wooden Boat Show is a great time for all ages on Sturgeon Bay’s west waterfront.
