The SUN
‘n FUN Experience
Attending SUN ‘n FUN Aerospace Expo has become more than just a
rite of passage for generations of families. Those that have attended together
share 48 years of stories that include camping under their plane’s wings in a
tent, huddling together gazing at the night air shows, eating buttery ears of
corn at the Corn Roast…and the list of memories go on and on.
Survival Gear
Attending an air show is an all-day adventure and here are the
bare minimums you should bring along. Backpacks
are permitted.
- Sunscreen and lip balm
- Walking shoes – leave those cute sandals at home
- Earplugs and ear protection
- Hats, sunglasses and a poncho
- Comfortable, layered clothing
- Hand sanitizer wipes
- Fully charged mobile devices
Safety Realities
There’s a lot of excitement when attending an airshow the size
of the SUN ‘n FUN Aerospace Expo. The reality is that the event is held on an
active airport. Parents should take care to explain to their children how to
behave and be safe around aircraft. There are spinning props, loud engines, moments
that it’s difficult to hear, vehicles in motion, etc.
Pets and Airshows don’t mix. Leave the pets at home. For all the
safety considerations of children, the concerns for pets are even higher. Don’t
be that pet-parent whose dog panics when they hear the F22 Raptor and they
think the world is coming to an end so they bolt. Don’t be cruel and burn your
dog’s paw-pads casually walking among the planes on 125-degree plus asphalt
tarmac.
Plan Your Day
Spend time reviewing the event website for
the airshow schedule, workshop and forum schedules, evening entertainment, etc.
Build in break times to sit in the (limited) shade, relax, rehydrate, enjoy a
snack, and take a short nap. Plan indoor activities like the Exhibit Halls
early in the day when it’s cooler.
Each day offers different activities. Refer to the Daily Schedule, or pick up a complimentary copy of
the In-Flight Guide when entering the main gate.
Ticket Suggestions
Youth (7-17 years of age) are half-price of adults for most
ticket options, while children 6 and younger are free. See all ticket options
