“Our air show is one of the most act-packed air shows in the country,” said Lt. Col. Diana Bradfield, 75th Operations Support Squadron commander and 2024 Air Show operations director. “We just want our community to be able to appreciate the historical aspects of our nation’s air power might and see what our next generation has to offer as well.”

We are also excited to showcase a joint airpower demonstration, simulating an airfield seizure, with our sister service partners.”
Another new act is Tinstix of Dynamite. This high-energy display team combines multiple performers to create on action-packed show with planes, pyro and jet trucks.

STEM City makes a repeat appearance, featuring an exciting display of hands-on booths and activities to encourage students and educate parents on opportunities in the areas of science, technology, engineering and math.
