Air Fair 2026 ✈️

Air Fair is one of our most anticipated annual events, bringing the excitement of aviation directly to the Southwest Michigan community. Hosted each year at the airport, this FREE family-friendly event offers free admission and invites guests of all ages to experience the world of flight up close. Whether you are an aviation enthusiast or simply looking for a unique way to spend the day, Air Fair creates an unforgettable atmosphere filled with energy, discovery, and hands-on experiences!
Throughout the event, attendees can explore a wide variety of activities designed to engage and entertain. From interactive displays and aviation exhibits to a diverse selection of food and drinks, there is something for everyone to enjoy. The highlight of Air Fair, of course, is the airplanes themselves. Guests have the rare opportunity to get up close to a range of aircraft, meet pilots, and learn more about the technology and skill that make flight possible. The event also offers chances to witness real-time landings and takeoffs, giving visitors a behind-the-scenes look at airport operations.
One of the most meaningful experiences at Air Fair is the opportunity for young attendees to participate in Young Eagles flights. For many children, this is their very first time in the air, sparking a lifelong interest in aviation. These flights are made possible through dedicated volunteers who are passionate about sharing the joy of flying and inspiring the next generation of aviators. Seeing the excitement on a child’s face as they take off is truly one of the most special moments of the day.
Air Fair is more than just an event, it is a celebration of community, education, and the spirit of aviation. It brings together families, local organizations, and aviation professionals in a welcoming environment that highlights the importance of air travel in our region. By opening our doors to the public, we aim to create lasting connections and inspire curiosity about the world above us.
The next Air Fair will take place September 26th, 2026!
