FAQ

When do the gates open?

Friday Twilight show gates open at 4:00PM.

Saturday show gates open at 10:00AM. Static displays and exhibits will open at 10:00AM.

We suggest arriving in plenty of time before the performances are scheduled to begin.

Will the show be the same both Friday and Saturday?

The show will not be the same on Friday and Saturday but will include some of the same acts.

How much is parking?

General parking is included in your ticket price. Please be prepared to walk from your vehicle to the gates as shuttles will not be provided.

Can I bring a scooter/wheelchair/golf cart?

Motorized scooters and wheelchairs for disabled patrons are allowed inside the airshow gates. Personal golf carts are not allowed. Please be aware that the crowds may be heavy, maneuvering may be difficult, and that there is no place at the show to plug in and recharge.

Is there a schedule of events?

We list our acts but cannot give a specific schedule since schedules are finalized much closer to the air show. Schedule depends on availability and various conditions.

*All acts are subject to change/cancellation without notice.

Can I bring my own food and drink?

Outside food and drinks are not allowed. There will be plenty of food vendors available on airshow grounds.

Can I bring a stroller or wagon for my kids?

Yes, strollers or small wagons are allowed. Please limit any diaper bags to the smallest you can manage. All items may be searched by security personnel at the gates and will have final say on what is allowed.

What should I bring/wear?

You are welcome to bring the following items:

  • Clear Bags only
  • Comfortable shoes
  • Sunscreen
  • Comfortable clothing for a sunny warm day
  • Ear protection for the kids
  • Sunglasses
  • Your camera (minus the bulky camera bag)
  • Something to sit on (blanket, lawn chair, stroller/wagon for the kiddos)
  • Money for the food/drink/souvenir vendors
  • Small, personal umbrellas are allowed
  • A great attitude and a love for all things aviation related!
What if it rains?

Unless the weather is severe, we will fly as much of the show as is safe and possible. In the event that both days of the show are canceled, your ticket price will be considered a donation to Greater Bryant Chamber of Commerce and will be used to fund following Wings Over Bryant Airshows. Due to FAA permit restrictions and performer commitments, it is not possible to reschedule the air show for another weekend.

Can I bring a sun umbrella?

You may bring a small umbrella, but please be courteous to those around you. We ask that the umbrellas are closed during the performances.

Are cameras allowed?

Yes, cameras for personal use are allowed. Camera bags may be checked by the gate security upon entry. Remember that the air show performance and many performers' acts are copyrights, and your photography or video cannot be used for commercial purposes.

Are pets allowed?

Pets are not allowed in the air show area and should not be left in vehicles. Because of the festival setting with food and drink vendors, the Health Department prohibits animals, other than legally allowed guide and service animals. Please also understand that temperatures on the tarmac area can easily reach more than 120 degrees and will burn a pet's feet. Plus, the loud noises and explosions can injure their sensitive hearing and/or frighten the animals.

Will there be any shade?

The air show is held under an open sky. You are encouraged to bring hats, sunglasses, small umbrellas, and sunscreen. No tents or canopies are allowed.

Do I need hearing protection?

The air show strongly encourages you to bring and use proper hearing protection such as quality ear plugs, especially for children. The noise from the jet engines and pyrotechnic explosions may be painful or harmful for some.

Look - don't touch!

Be careful when you are near airplanes or other displays. Equipment can be easily damaged. Do not touch exhibited unless you have permission from the pilot or owner. Keep your children close and let them know they should not touch anything. No smoking near the aircraft.

Can I go out to my car and re-enter the show?

Re-entry will not be allowed once you have left the gates.

Can we watch the show from our car in the parking lot?

No. Even if you have purchased tickets, you must leave your vehicle and view the show from inside the air show gates. This rule is due to FAA safety regulations involving the performance area.

Can I arrange for a handicap parking drop off/pick up close to the eating area?

Unfortunately, we do not have shuttle service to/from the show due to foot traffic and aircraft proximity.

Why the restrictions on coolers, large bags, and totes?

The FAA and Department of Homeland Security have required us to enforce these rules for your safety. You will be on airport grounds. This is a rule common to all airports, major air shows, and events in the U.S.

What are the radio frequencies used by the air show?

That information is not released to the general public.
