2,520 views
The Great New England Air Show (branded the Great New England Air & Space Show) is a large biennial military and civilian aviation showcase at Westover Air Reserve Base in Chicopee, Massachusetts, presented by the all-volunteer Westover Galaxy Community Council (a 501(c)(3); not a DoD organization). After a multi-year hiatus, the show returns May 21–23, 2027, per the organizer's official site. An unprecedented headline lineup: the U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds and the U.S. Navy Blue Angels appear together at the same show, with additional performers to be announced (lineup subject to change, per the organizer). Expect incredible aerial demonstrations, static aircraft displays, and family-friendly, patriotic programming honoring service members. Admission has historically been free; 2027 ticketing details not yet published.
