The Pacific airshow in Huntington Beach is back for a three-day spectacle in the sky from October 4 through 6, 2024.
Headlining for the show's seventh year include the U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds and the F-22 Raptor Demonstration team with dozens of other military and civilian aviators from all over the world.
The event is free for the public, but you can purchase upgraded beachfront seats for a better viewing experience. Pacific Airshow is offering three level of admissions: general admission, pier seating or premiere club seating.
Parking will be extremely limited, so biking or walking are suggested for those who live/are staying close.
If you choose to use Uber or Lyft the Pacific Coast Highway and Huntington Street is the designated Drop-off location for the airshow.
The ticketed portion of the sand runs between Beach Blvd. and the southside of the Pier, but public access remains along the waterline and at designated coastal access routes. However, there will be two tunnels through the ticketed areas with free public access to the beachfront.
Here is what you need to know before coming to event:
NO DRONE ZONE
Bring beach chairs or a beach towel for comfortable seating.
Pacific Airshow does not publish an official schedule for performances. They only list the performers on their website in no particular order in hopes that attendees will be surprised and delighted without knowing what’s up next!
This free event is open to the public all three days. Flying takes place from 11 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. daily.
All three days of the airshow contain the full lineup of performers. Friday, September 29, 2023, is a “rehearsal day,” meaning the performances may change from the main show on Saturday and Sunday. If you can make it on Friday, parking will be easier and the crowds smaller than Saturday and Sunday.
Show Center is located on the beach across from The Waterfront Beach Resort (Hilton) at Huntington St. and Pacific Coast Highway. With an aerial performance box of more than 1 mile long, anywhere along the beach North or South of this location will be a great spot to view the show!
The Show center will also feature upgraded seating, and Airshow vendors providing food, beverage, and souvenirs.
