Oregon International Air Show (McMinnville)
Join us for a weekend of world-class flying at the Oregon International Air Show at McMinnville, one of the West Coast's premier aviation events, held at the McMinnville Municipal Airport. This three-day celebration brings the U.S. Navy Blue Angels, military jet demonstrations, historic warbirds, and precision aerobatics together for a high-flying summer tradition for families across the Willamette Valley. The 2026 show also marks America's 250th anniversary, and every ticket helps support local charities, a mission the Air Show has carried since 1988.
This is a loud, high-energy event out on an open airfield with limited shade. Planning ahead makes the day far more comfortable, especially in the August sun and heat and for guests who prefer a slower pace or need to manage time on their feet.
Event highlights
Headline performance by the U.S. Navy Blue Angels.
USAF F-35A Lightning II Demo Team and USMC MV-22 Osprey Demo Team.
Historic warbirds and world-class civilian aerobatic performers.
Static aircraft displays open for up-close viewing throughout the day.
Concessions, merchandise vendors, and family-friendly activities across the grounds.
A special salute to America's 250th anniversary.
Accessibility and comfort
The airfield is largely flat, with grass and paved areas between viewing zones.
Shade is limited, so hats, sunscreen, and water go a long way in the August sun.
ADA and handicap parking is available in the Premium and Blue lots with a state-issued ID or parking permit.
Multiple viewing areas are spread across the field, so you can find a spot that fits your pace.
Mornings are the calmest window. Arrive early to settle parking and security screening before the headline acts..
