Guests 21 and older can participate in the Brew Fest by purchasing a $40 wristband (on-site) for unlimited tastings from 12 local breweries and distilleries.
Kids 12 and under are encouraged to show their patriotic spirit in celebration of America’s 250th! Come dressed as an American icon, your favorite pilot or aviation team—or anything red, white and blue—for a patriotic costume contest, with prizes for the top three costumes! Adults can join in the fun too!
But that’s not all, kids of all ages are welcome to get up close to some of our performer’s aircraft in our Pet-A-Plane area, plus enjoy family-friendly games, and meet Airshow performers.
Have a great day!
