The event has been announced on the website.

I think the $85 price point is fair considering they only have limited capacity (500 Cars). I don't know how they will fit the Canadian Forces and their warbirds in a full TOM show (2 Hours).

I bought a ticket to attend the Saturday show with my family. Hoping to find a good spot for photos on the Friday practice and Sunday.

I have a ticket for Sunday to attend with my nephew. This will be his first ever airshow and he is excited!

Does anyone know if there will be any departures from the Wings and Wheels show on Sunday or Arrivals on Saturday?

Our Canadian assets are staging out of Windsor (YQG) :)

While there is always the possibility that one could sneak in after gates opening time, once waiver time hits it’s a different story.

The two events are taking place on opposite sides of the airport and will be kept separate for logistical reasons. Those same reasons will be why the static birds likely won’t be flying during the evening events. Never say never but not over the top likely.

Of course, there is always a chance that one of the warbirds from Wings and Wheels does a couple flybys for the evening show. Although, I don't know how they can host the Snowbirds, CF-18, and their own collection of warbirds in a full 2 hours. Seems it would take at most 1 hour and 30 minutes, especially since the RCAF performers are staging from Winsor.

What's the layout for the evening show? Where cars parking and what direction are they facing?

Thanks

Cars will be facing northeast lined up with the runways 5R/23L (currently under construction) and 5L/23R. The layout will be similar to how TOM will have it this year (see the TOM website for more details) with only a 500 car capacity. Tickets must be purchased ahead of time.

I think you mean facing northwest :)
