HILL AIR FORCE BASE, Utah -- Following a thorough review of operational commitments, Hill Air Force Base has come to the necessary conclusion to postpone the 2026 Warriors Over the Wasatch Air Show. The new date is June 19-20, 2027.
This change is a direct result of the need to prioritize resources for critical, ongoing operations.
"This was not the outcome any of us hoped for. We know this news is a great disappointment to the community partners, performers, and thousands of supporters who make this event a success," said Col. Dan Cornelius, 75th Air Base Wing commander. "We are committed to delivering an exceptional experience, and it became evident that with current constraints, we could not guarantee the quality and scale that defines the Warriors Over the Wasatch show and that our community deserves."
The primary focus for base leadership remains on supporting our dedicated Airmen and their families while ensuring all mission objectives are met. Postponing the show is the most responsible course of action at this time.
“The unwavering support from our Utah community is invaluable, and we are profoundly grateful. Our commitment to this event remains, and we have turned our focus toward bringing the air show back on June 19-20, 2027,” Cornelius added.
“While disappointing to have to postpone the Warriors Over the Wasatch Air Show, The Utah Air Show Foundation is 100 percent here to support Hill AFB and their mission which will always come first,” said Kevin Ireland, Utah Air Show Foundation executive director. “We will continue to work on presenting the best air show possible as a partner to Hill AFB and look forward to our next opportunity in 2027.”
