While we won’t have a designated “kids’ zone” this year, rest assured that the 2024 Pikes Peak Regional Airshow is still incredibly family-friendly. We have exciting interactive STEM vendors lined up on the concourse. These vendors offer hands-on activities that are not only entertaining but also educational. It’s a fantastic opportunity for children to explore the world of aviation and science in a fun and engaging way.

We appreciate the enthusiasm for the High Flight experience, and it has been a cherished tradition for us. However, due to the growth of the airshow and the increase in scale, the setup days have become more intricate, requiring additional time and coordination. This has made it challenging to host the High Flight experience on the day before the event.

We want to assure you that our commitment to inclusivity and providing memorable experiences remains unwavering. We still invite you to come and experience the thrill that the airshow has to offer.

Additionally, we encourage you to explore the National World War II Aviation Museum during the off-season. This museum showcases the very aircraft that will be featured in the airshow.

We understand the importance of the High Flight experience and appreciate everyone’s feedback and we will strongly reconsider this for future airshows.

We’re grateful for the incredible response and enthusiasm from those who have already secured their tickets! While Canteen Spots are no longer available, we’re pleased to invite people to purchase Preferred Seating tickets. Not only do they grant you prime seating to witness the airshow, but you’ll also enjoy the convenience of private restrooms and receive an official collectible program per order.
