Imagine stunt pilots performing vertical rolls, loops and amazing feats of synchronicity in the sky above you. Join the final stop on the 2024 Air Dot Show Tour as the Atlanta Air Show returns to Falcon Field for an inspirational and patriotic celebration of military excellence and civilian expertise.

“We encourage folks to come out to support those who are fighting for our freedom every day,” said Chris Dirato, senior VP of Bitner Group who manages media for the air shows.

See the U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds, F-35A Lightning II Demo Team, F-18 Rhino Demo Team, F-15 Strike Eagle; Georgia State Patrol and pilots Greg Koontz (who narrates from the cockpit) and Grant Neilsen CAP 323. You may come away knowing what it means to see maneuvers like Neilsen’s Hammerhead or Cuban 8. Check the Air Show site for the latest on performers.

Patrons can enjoy food and beverages as well as merchandise areas placed around the show. The center stage will have a DJ, and fans will have the opportunity to hear/see interviews with the performers during the show.
