JOINT BASE LANGLEY-EUSTIS –
Air Power Over Hampton Roads Air Show is taking flight in Hampton, VA, headlined by the U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds, which will take place May 6 – 7, 2023 at Langley Air Force Base. General admission to the show is free and premium seating options are available while supplies last.
One major change for this year’s air show is attendees must pre-register for parking, including DoD ID card holders. The free parking will be in various locations, both on and off base. Transportation will be provided from the parking lots, except for some of the locations on base that are within walking distance.
For attendees who receive an on-base parking pass, the Armistead and Lasalle gates will open at 9 a.m. on both days. For attendees who receive off base parking, transportation from those lots will begin at 8:45 a.m. on both days.
To reserve a parking pass, visit https://event.attendstar.com/event/show/air-power-over-hampton-roads-2023/. If you have issues reserving your pass, please call 757-353-4433.
Handicap parking will be available for individuals who have state-issued handicap parking placards and/or plates. Please follow the general parking registration instructions and be prepared to show your handicap parking permit upon entry.
