The Chesapeake Bay Chapter of the Antique & Classic Boat Society is holding our 39th Annual Antique & Classic Boat Festival & Coastal Arts Fair once again over Father’s Day weekend on the beautiful grounds of the Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum (CBMM). This show, to take place June 18-20, 2027, is the largest antique and classic boat show in the Mid-Atlantic. The theme for this show is Launches, Tenders and Cruisers.
In addition to the 100+ wood and fiberglass boats on display on land or in the water, we have a Field of Dreams, where you can find a “project” boat or a ready-to-go boat. Our Nautical Flea Market has a wide variety of unique items for sale. You can see unrestored boats next to restored ones to see what is possible. Our juried Coastal Arts Fair attracts some of the best-known artisans and craftspeople from Canada to Florida. We even have activities for children too! Visitors to the show also have access to all of the museum’s exhibits and displays.
CBMM is located in the quaint and historic town of St. Michaels, Md., on the Eastern Shore. Talbot Street, St. Michael’s main street, offers shopping, dining and night life. There are period homes, a motor car museum, vineyard, brewery and rum distillery — all within walking distance from the museum grounds.
