Cue to Cancellation of all Blue Angel participation in air shows this summer,
the Homecoming Air Show for 2013 is on hold until further notice.

The Homecoming Air Show is normally held at Pensacola Naval Air Station, Florida, on the
first Friday and Saturday, in November. The show is open to the public and gate admission is
free. Gates open at 8 am each day. The show begins at 9:30 am, with the Blue Angel Flight
Demonstration Team scheduled to fly around 2 pm. The Blue Angel pilots do sign autographs
after the show.

Over 100,000 people are expected to view the show daily. Visitors are directed
to the air field parking from both gates, but are encouraged to use the shuttle parking lot to
avoid long walks. Buses will make the rounds, taking patrons to and from the air show site.
Traffic is well handled and clears the base easily after the show.

Patrons may bring blankets & chairs, however, no coolers, backpacks, food, drinks
or pets are allowed. (Baby and infant needs are allowed - but no glass bottles) Small
camera and diaper bags are allowed but subject to search.
A handicap area is set aside for wheelchairs and an accompaniest only. No seating is provided.
There is a scooter vendor that will provide mobility scooters for a fee. You can call
"A Scooter For You" for more information or to reserve a scooter by the day or the hour.
Their contact information: 678-777-7996 or 770-480-4777

MWR rents bleachers to provide seating for those without chairs and bleacher seating is
available for $5 per person in advance or $7 after Oct 1. Many large groups (25 or more)
reserve seating in advance so bleacher seating is limited and prepurchase is recommended.
Bleacher, Box and Flightline seating packages are offered on our seating page.

The show includes static displays of aircraft of all types, food, beverage and vendor booths,
virtual reality experiences and other attractions that make this show a favorite excursion for
folks from all over the country. There will be a Kids' Zone, virtual games and bungee jump to
entertain children of all ages.

For those who have never attended an air show, be advised the aircraft can be VERY noisy
and young children need protection for their ears. It can also be windy on the tarmac and
layers of clothes are recommended. The temperature usually ranges between 60-70 degrees.

Security will direct traffic to Shuttle Parking. Lots are identified by color and shuttle
busses will have the same colors indicated so you can find the bus to the correct lot after
the show. Shuttle Buses are provided at no charge and will run all day, delivering
patrons right to the air show tarmac and back again after the show. The
shuttles are handicap accessable.

Groups of 25 or more may contact us for group seating information.

The Friday Night Air Show will be open to the public. Patrons can buy
combo reserve seating tickets for both day and night shows.
