Accessibility Questions

Will there be handicap access to the show?

Our air show is ADA compliant.  For guests with disabilities, we recommend giving yourself just a little bit of extra time to get to the seating areas. We have assistance in the parking areas and the airport ramp of course is paved. The access to the viewing areas is unobstructed and will be easily accessible by wheelchairs and other ADA conveyances. There is no specific seating other than in the chalets, but guests are encouraged to bring their own bag chairs or other portable seating for use in the general viewing areas. It is important to note that this is an airport ramp, and while we have tried to make it as accommodating as possible, it is still a temporarily converted area that is being used for our event, and may not be an ideal environment for everyone. 

Is there handicap parking?

Yes, handicap parking will be available in proiority positions located close to the entrance gate. You  must have a legally placarded  vehicle in order to park in the Handicap section.

Can I bring my Emotional Support Animal in to the event?
