The Annapolis Boat Shows is a highlight of the Maryland calendar and a headache to drive to. DCA Limos handles the whole evening: pickup at home or hotel, the drive along Rowe Boulevard from US-50, Duke of Gloucester Street, Compromise Street and Main Street down to City Dock, drop-off at the entrance and a chauffeur waiting at a quiet corner when it ends. We serve the sailboat and powerboat shows in October, the spring sailboat show and the Bay Bridge Boat Show.
Annapolis
April & October
Flat rate — call for quote
24 / 7
Every trip is quoted flat before you book — with hourly service available if you would like the car to stay — and our chauffeurs plan around the venue's closures and exits so you never see the parking lot.
The United States Sailboat Show runs Thursday through Sunday over the second weekend of October, followed by the Powerboat Show the next weekend; the Annapolis Spring Sailboat Show comes in late April and the Bay Bridge Boat Show in Stevensville the same month.
Downtown closes to most traffic during the shows; the show runs shuttles from the Navy-Marine Corps Stadium lots, garages on Duke of Gloucester and Gorman Streets fill by mid-morning and Eastport's side streets are permit-restricted.
We drop at the Compromise Street or Main Street curb a block from the show gates, or at the stadium shuttle lot if you prefer, and pick up at a downtown hotel or an Eastport restaurant so the car never enters the closed streets.
Popular add-ons around the venue: the Naval Academy and Gate 1, the Annapolis Yacht Club, the Westin Annapolis and Graduate Annapolis, Eastport's Boatyard Bar & Grill and Carrol's Creek, the Historic Inns of Annapolis and Kent Island and the Bay Bridge Marina.
Boat show week turns downtown Annapolis into a pedestrian zone ringed by full garages. A chauffeur drops you steps from the gate, waits through the seminars and the dock walks and moves you between the show, Eastport and your hotel without a shuttle line.

A professional chauffeur service for Annapolis Boat Shows covers more than the airport run. DCA Limos handles corporate car service and roadshows, wedding and prom limo service, and point-to-point black car rides across the region.
Airport car service to and from Reagan National (DCA), Dulles (IAD) and BWI is quoted as a flat rate and confirmed before you ride, with dispatch reachable around the clock at (877) 609-1919.
We drop at the Compromise Street or Main Street curb a block from the show gates, or at the stadium shuttle lot if you prefer, and pick up at a downtown hotel or an Eastport restaurant so the car never enters the closed streets.
Point-to-point trips are one flat rate by vehicle and pickup address; if you want the car to wait through the event, we quote an hourly rate with a minimum instead. Either way the price is confirmed before you book and never surges on event night. Call (877) 609-1919 for a quote.

Yes. Cadillac Escalade and Chevrolet Suburban SUVs seat six, Mercedes Sprinter vans carry up to 14 and stretch limousines seat eight; larger parties ride in multiple coordinated vehicles that arrive together.
Downtown closes to most traffic during the shows; the show runs shuttles from the Navy-Marine Corps Stadium lots, garages on Duke of Gloucester and Gorman Streets fill by mid-morning and Eastport's side streets are permit-restricted. With a chauffeur there is nothing to park.
