Hola yo Estoy hospedada el la 81. As buen Lugar para ver el show?I’m staying at 81. Is it a good place to see the show?
Hola Angelica, si, Deberías poder ver bastante bien desde allí. El radio es de 10 millas al norte y al sur de la calle 15 (15th Street).
What street should i go to the beach on in order for my kids to be able to watch and enjoy the airshow?
Here’s the radius that they are flying: https://www.facebook.com/ocairshow/photos/a.359857370795/10157457655655796/ It’s about 10 miles north and south of 15th Street, so you don’t have to be right at “show center” this year. We also have the livestream audio and visual available here on the website!
How far up the beach are the planes/the airshow decently viewed? Taking my 5 year old twins to the beach tomorrow to have a beach day and watch the airshow. What street should i go to the beach on in order for my kids to have an awesome view/experience? Please advise ASAP. Good Luck Blue Angels!!-

I’ll be in chincoteague. Will the planes be visible there in the way to OC?
You might see a couple things in the sky – we have planes flying from a few different airports, so it won’t be all the acts.
What time tomorrow
Noon to four pm.
Will there be any radio stations simulcasting the event so we can listen to what’s going on?
This year we have the livestream audio and visual available here on the website!
What are the times
Noon to 4 pm.
Im still not understanding….do we have to pay to just watch from the beach?
Hey Sarah, typically we have a ticketed area of the show so that guests can enjoy close views, amenities and the audio of the show. This year, however, there are no ticketed beach areas because of public health regulations. So all of the beach is public.
weather looks bad, will it be rain or shine?
Show is rain or shine – but pray for nice visibility!
What time does the show start
I don’t see the Blue Angels on the schedule for 8/15 and 8/16.
Our headliners this year are the US Air Force Thunderbirds. The US Navy Blue Angels were at last year’s show.
Is it rain or shine?
Yes, rain or shine!
Do you perform rain or shine? Looks like it’s going to be a wet weekend.
Yes, it’s rain or shine, but we’re hoping for some good visibility!
Is there going to be a 2021 Air Show? Have not seen anything about one yet.
Yes, there will be! Stay tuned for the date announcement following this year’s show.
how far up the beach will the show go, what street
They’ll fly in a radius 10 miles north and south of 15th Street.
Where do you recommend parking?
So this year’s show will be a little different because there are no ticketed beach areas, and the planes are going to be flying a bit further of a distance to allow for visibility all up and down the beach. The usual parking lot at the West Ocean City Park and Ride are NOT open this year due to COVID, so you’ll want to likely research ahead of time to find a good option. Typically there are vendors not affiliated with us here at the air show along the city streets that sell parking that can be an option.
I just read a news article about livestreaming your air show. I’m a frequent visitor to Ocean City from Iowa. I would love to watch and share the show with neighbors. Can you give me the information as to how I can view it?
Click Here to pre-register. You can share this link with your neighbors too
What time does it start?
Noon each day
From noon until??We were on the beach today My friends daughter is petrified unfortunately of the sound. We absolutely love it but want to maybe take her somewhere for a while
4 pm ET.
What street should i take my kids to the beach on in order to have a decent view and an awesome experience of the airshow?
Here’s the radius that they are flying: https://www.facebook.com/ocairshow/photos/a.359857370795/10157457655655796/ It’s about 10 miles north and south of 15th Street, so you don’t have to be right at “show center” this year. We also have the livestream audio and visual available here on the website!
What time does the Air Show start Saturday?
Noon to 4 pm.
The line up is for both Saturday and Sunday correct?
Yes! All performers are both days.
What time will they be flying? Looking at watching them from the water.
Noon to 4 pm.
If you have drop zone ticket already are they still good and the drop zone will be available for pre-purchased tickets?
Unfortunately, all beachfront ticket areas are no longer allowed due to public health regulations. Please see the email we sent out to ticketholders last week regarding options.
I have drop zone tickets that were purchased last month, but I have not received an email regarding options. What is the status of the drop zone?
Hey Lisa, please reach out to our box office team at info@completeticketsolutions.com. We’ll be automatically transferring your tickets to the 2021 show for you – no action that you need to take.
Hi,
So we will be watching from our boat.. what time should we head out to see you on the water?
Aerial show is noon to 4 pm.
Is it permissible to bring an additional umbrella to a Sand Box?
There are no beachfront ticketing options for this year’s show – please see our email from last week regarding new public health regulations for this year’s show.
We are going to be in OC until Friday the 14th. I have a 5 year old grandson and was wondering if they would be practicing on the 14th before we leave. He loves airplanes and was hoping he might get a glimpse.
We do have a practice day on Friday, so he’ll likely hear and maybe see something that day! We don’t publish our practice schedule because it is subject to change.
I recieved an email stating these tickets are void due to the dept of health in md for the air show 15 and 16
Hey Louann, yes – per our email, all beachfront ticketed areas have been shut down by the public health department. Please see the email for further details.
Do you have to pay to watch from the beach?
Ticket is needed for the beach area near show center at 16th street. The rest of the beach is open to the public.
To encourage social distancing, why not stretch the show from Inlet to about 75th Street?
We are only able to take up a certain portion of the beach with the support of the City.
I feel in light of the current situation of Covid it would be fair to extend the fly zone. Come on OC You can’t even take a bus anywhere to watch!
Hey Pam, you can see the complete 10-mile flight area on our Facebook page.
Hi. How many can fit in a VIP box?
You mean the VIP Skybox?
Hello I was wondering street do the planes and thunderbirds flyover to do their show
Show center is between 15th and 17th Street along the boardwalk.
I have tickets for the original date. Will they be honored in August?
Hey Nancy, absolutely! If you have Saturday tickets, they will be honored on Saturday August 15 as is, or same with Sunday on Sunday, August 16.
If we bought tickets prior to when the airshow was originally suppose to be, will our tickets be honored for the new date of August 15th and 16th to attend without having to buy new tickets?
We have Flightline tickets prepurchased for Saturday in June but since it’s now scheduled for august 15th saturday can we still use those tickets? And how do we get the parking pass?
Hi Sharon, you will be able to use your Saturday tickets as is for the August 15th Saturday show date. You will be emailed the parking pass with directions to your parking spot about two weeks prior to the show.
If we already purchased Drop Zone tickets for the previous dates in June, these tickets are still good, correct?
Thank you.
Hi Diana, yes! Your tickets can be used as is for the same day of the weekend that they were purchased (Saturday for Saturday August 15 and Sunday tickets for Sunday, August 16). No action required on your part!
We are unable to attend the rescheduled date. Can we please receive a refund?
Hi Keristin, please email us at info@air.show and we’ll share your options with you.
Need to know new date asap so we can get the rooms we want.

Hey Darlene, we’ll be announcing in the next couple weeks; stay tuned.
I received a event on Facebook and it said it was in Dec. so it will be in August now for sure right
Hey Eddie, we had just put a December date on the Facebook event in order to hold the event until we got it rescheduled. The date is August 15-16 for sure.
This is one of my favorite times of the year! The show is amazing and I love being able to stand on the beach and see the planes fly by! Totally understand the reason for postponing and like most people said thanks for not cancelling! I have been going for four years and will never miss another one! Thanks and be safe!
We love our show too and we can’t WAIT to get back out there!!! Thanks so much for your love and support of the show!
Has a date been finalized for 2021 yet?
Been coming to the show for a long time my dad serve 25 years in the navy ww2 Korea japan South Pacific and here everyone’s safety mostly the aircrew and their planes are important
I used to sit on the board walk to watch with my husband who is a war buff but never sat on the beach or on top of building
Can’t wait to see it we will hopefully get there one way or another thanks fir not canceling it
Thanks to all involved to try to make this happen
We love it too – it broke our hearts to have to postpone, but our spectators’ safety ALWAYS comes first!
My grandchildren were so disappointed, but we’ll be there on the rescheduled date. Can’t wait!!!
Us too! It broke our hearts to have to postpone, but our spectators’ safety comes first and foremost. We’re looking forward to bringing the show back this fall!
So you’re looking at dates this FALL now, not summer? Any idea when the date is going to be announced?
It’s likely that late summer/early fall period timeframe. Date should be announced in the next 30 days.
Are the Thunderbirds going to be coming back once a new date is set?
Hey Matt, yes, the Thunderbirds are still slated to be our headliners! We are awaiting a final date confirmation from them.
Thank you for not cancelling it completely. That’s awesome!
Definitely! We would have been very sadden too! Looking forward to the fall.
I want very much to see the airshow, but I assume that if I have a scheduling conflict, I can get a refund of my $500+ – correct?
Hey Eugene, yes, we’re asking all patrons to wait until we announce the new date for this year’s show, and then we’ll work with ticketholders who may have a scheduling conflict.
Thank you and God bless you the USAF THUNDERBIRDS.!
Amen! We love what the USAF Thunderbirds and USN Blue Angels are doing to support morale in this time when we can’t host our show. So appreciative of our military members!
Looking forward to the rescheduled date.
Us too! Thanks for being our fan. <3
Do you know when it’s the air show this year???
Hey Eugenio, new date hasn’t been announced yet. We’re pending the decision by our military performers, but as soon as we do know, we’ll email ticketholders and post to social media!
So disappointed to have to cancel my trip to air show. This would have been my first trip for air show. I hope we get to come.
We’re so sad about the delay too, but our fans’ safety and well-being is our #1 priority! So we will reschedule and plan to enjoy our time together then. Thanks so much for being our fan!
Do you have an estimated timeframe of when you’ll be announcing the new date?
Hey Anna, thanks for asking! At this time, we’re waiting on confirmation from our military acts on their updated schedule, which is a bit of a moving target. We’ll email out to our mailing list and post on Facebook as soon as the new date is confirmed with the airport officials, local government teams, and performers.
I’ve been attending the shows since early 2000’s, NEVER been disappointed. Can’t wait to hear the new date!
Thanks for being our fan, Owen! We love this show too and can’t wait to get to bring it back later this year! Stay tuned.
I hope it’s in late August because I am waiting to schedule my vacation around this event. Safety is paramount during these uncertain times.
We’ll definitely keep everyone up-to-date on when the OC show will be returning. We appreciate our fans! Stay well.
Thank you for not canceling it completely
We love our show too! It’s our goal to make it happen with the right safety procedures in place to protect our fans. Thanks for supporting and loving our show too!
