AirVenture, held each year in Oshkosh, Wisconsin, is the World's Greatest Aviation Celebration and Air Show! Attracting more that 100,000 aviation enthusiasts annually, the event features something for everyone!
With gas prices on the rise, it is important to find vacation destinations that won't require expensive flights or full days of driving. AirVenture provides days of fun and is right here in the Midwest!
The event is hosted by the Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA), which has chapters all over the world, including several right here in the Twin Cities Metro Area.
Some attractions at this year's celebration include Warbird military aircraft, the nation's 30,000th homebuilt aircraft, appearances by such celebrities as actors Harrison Ford and Gary Sinese, and a live performance by Foreigner!
