We love hosting events for groups to enjoy our Air Shows and often become part of the day. Past events include automobile clubs, the East Coast Doughboys, and over 50 years of the Mid-Hudson RC Society Annual Jamboree. In 2023, our History of Flight Air Show is every Saturday and WWI Air Show is every Sunday June 17-Oct 15. Events posted as they are scheduled. Be sure to check out our Flight Nights on selected Wednesdays. Great music, Food Trucks, and Biplane Rides
Please note that events on Air Show dates are value added to your Air Show admission and not available separately. Events, such as the car displays, are organized by the participants and we cannot guarantee their content or scheduling. For updates and additions to our schedule of events please visit the website often or follow us on Facebook and Instagram. If you have a group and would like to schedule an event, please call 845-752-3200.
