Fourth of July at Planes of Fame
A FOURTH OF JULY LIKE NO OTHER. HOPEFULLY!
JOIN US THIS WEEKEND
We’ll all remember
Independence Day 2020
as the year we didn’t do all the traditional things – parades, picnics, barbecues, and fireworks.
But we can still venture out and get a taste of our own independence with a visit to the Planes of Fame Air Museum. This weekend, the “Outdoor Experience” is a great “safe and sane” way for the entire family to enjoy the holiday while discovering our aviation heritage up close.
In keeping with the Governor’s orders, all outdoor areas of the Museum will be open to guests from 10:00 am until 4:00 pm Friday, Saturday, and Sunday with special discounted “Outdoor Experience” pricing. Hangar doors will be open for inside viewing, and a number of aircraft will be outside for close-up viewing. Wear your mask, maintain physical distance, and hear our docents tell the stories of the men and women who built and flew these planes to preserve our freedoms.
As it is for all us, the COVID-19 pandemic continues to be a challenge for Planes of Fame. Your patronage and support are so appreciated!
