Lancaster City’s Summer Youth Experience:

The 9th Annual Rotary Wheels and Wings Festival & 5K

on Saturday, May 16, 2026

at Lancaster Airport and Brethren Village!

This wonderful event has grown to more than 1,000 attendees, 300+ cars being exhibited, 100+ runners and walkers, plus aircraft. This year, it will be bigger and better than ever!

The general public gets in FREE! Just come on out and enjoy the car show, Fly-In, food, music, children’s area and more! Onsite parking is just $5.00 per car.

Wonderful News! The car show exhibit area is now paved! No need to worry about mud, grass or uneven surfaces. While it’s a large lot, there are only so many spaces so it’s first come, first served. Also, there will not be adequate space for exhibitors to place pop-up tents behind their vehicles. We thank you in advance for your cooperation.
