What You’ll Experience at the Air Show

This show will be a celebration of aviation history, but also a wonderful and entertaining opportunity for kids and adults, alike, to learn more about both airplanes, in general, and the United States Air Force. The legendary Thunderbirds will be one of the groups performing various maneuvers, as part of flight formations and also in solo routines. You won’t want to miss their dazzling feats!

The event will take place from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. each day, with aerial demonstrations starting at 11 a.m. Perhaps best of all, this event is free to the public!
