RE-IMAGINE, IF YOU WILL ... THE TWILIGHT SHOW: It’s back! Have fun as the sun sets at the Chennault International Airshow’s Friday night Twilight Show, a super-fun feature from the past that we're restoring for 2023. One $50 pass buys a tailgate spot that admits everyone in your vehicle for that single price! (It's for as many people as your vehicle has seat belts.)
Space on the ramp is limited for this Friday-night-only event. Tickets are available on a first-come, first-served basis — only in advance, and only online, at chennaultairshow.com — so grab your ticket now and be there when the gates open at 5 p.m.
You must purchase your "tailgate pass" ticket by Thursday, May 18. No tickets will be sold at the gate.
Here's some important fine print stuff you need to know:
• The Twilight Show is fast-pace, shorter show than the Saturday and Sunday shows with a selected lineup of our performers. (The U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds do not perform at night and are not part of the Twilight Show.) The attractions include RANDY W. BALL'sSoviet-era MiG, pictured here.
• You’ll have a 25-by-25 tailgate area.
• Food trucks and beer and wine vendors will be at the event.
• Feel free to bring your own ice chest. No glass, though, and no cooking.
• Air-conditioned, accessible restrooms are available.
Please note that vehicles larger than 20 feet in length or 8 feet in height will not be admitted.

Tickets are going... going... and they're almost gone! We're less than 10 days away from our 10th-anniversary show and tickets are flying ✈️
Zones A and B are completely sold out for the Saturday show. Zone A is almost sold out on Sunday and there are only a few more tickets in Zone B.
If you're hoping to get in on the action and tailgate with us next weekend, now is the time to secure your spot: https://bit.ly/3QSihOW
