RV Camping Reservations Available Through the New Mobile App
Few things can bring our community together like the thrill and exhilaration that an Airshow can, and fans can look forward to another great year of world-class aerobatics and supersonic military jets at the family-friendly, patriotic Pacific Airshow. Premium Airshow tickets will go on sale July 1 for the 2021 show, taking place Oct. 1 – 3 over the beautiful Pacific Ocean in Huntington Beach.
This year’s show is set to be the best one yet and will feature the U.S. Navy Blue Angels celebrating their 75th anniversary season and flying new F/A-18 Super Hornets, the Canadian Forces Snowbirds celebrating their 50th anniversary, Captain Kristin “BEO” Wolfe leading the U.S. Air Force ACC F-35 Lightning II Demo squad, the U.S. Marine Corps MV-22 Osprey Demo Team, and the U.S. Army Golden Knights parachute demonstration team. Dozens of other civilian, military, and local first responder performers will be announced soon.
“Pacific Airshow excites the inner aviator in all of us, unites our community in our common love for our country, respect for our military and veterans, and pride in our innovations,” said Kevin Elliott, Pacific Airshow director. “We can’t wait to welcome everyone back to the beach for the best airshow yet. Stay tuned for a few surprise announcements coming soon.”

About Pacific Airshow
The first Pacific Airshow took place in 2016, attracting hundreds of thousands to Huntington Beach for an inspiring display of aviation skill and military might soaring over one of California’s most pristine beaches. The family-friendly airshow continues to flourish and grow under the directorship of Kevin Elliott and his company Code Four, a Huntington Beach, CA based full-service integrated experiential and creative agency. Elliott has reimagined the airshow experience with a combination of unique aviation performers, on-site hospitality and exclusive show elements that awe and inspire attendees. Spanning over three days, the Airshow features the best in military and civilian flight demonstrations from teams all over the world, including past performances by the U.S. Navy Blue Angels, U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds, Royal Air Force Red Arrows and Canadian Forces Snowbirds. In only five years, Pacific Airshow has twice been named Civilian Airshow of the Year by the U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds and in 2019 named among the Top 5 Air Shows by USA Today’s 10Best. The event has become the cornerstone of the fall calendar for residents and visitors from as far away as Europe and Asia while delivering a more than $105 million economic impact to the City of Huntington Beach alone and even broader economic benefits to the County of Orange and Southern California.
