Pacific Airshow Huntington Beach has announced an expanded performer lineup, stacking the three-day spectacle in the sky with the best in aviation, October 4-6, 2024. Along with the previously announced headlining U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds and fan-favorite F-22 Raptor Demonstration Team, Pacific Airshow Huntington Beach will be the site for the last performance ever of the U.S. Air Force A-10 Demo Team.
In its eighth year, Pacific Airshow Huntington Beach is continuing to amp up the action in the air and on the sand by building a world-first temporary landing area on the beach to bring attendees and their families up close and personal with five STOL aircraft at this year's Airshow. Amongst the STOL pilots attending is Luke Czepiela who famously landed on top of the Burj Al Arab skyscraper in Dubai last year. Attendees can witness non-stop sky-high stunts, fast flyovers and take part in expanded beach based fun and entertainment - including the return of Maverick and Iceman on the sand.
“Our team will be delivering on our commitment to produce a bigger and better experience each year, bringing our audience closer than ever to the best of aviation,” said Kevin Elliott, Pacific Airshow’s Executive Director. “When we say our vision is to redefine the Airshow experience, we mean it, and we are delivering an experience unlike any other event anywhere in the world.”

“Pacific Airshow’s social and economic impact on the community is unmatched and every year brings our community together for a family friendly, patriotic celebration complete with world class aviation displays right on our coastline,” said Gracey Van Der Mark, Mayor of Huntington Beach. “We’re thrilled to have Pacific Airshow return to the skies over Huntington Beach this year for Southern California to enjoy.”
