The Gary Air Show Weekend is set to thrill visitors along the shores of Lake Michigan in Gary, Indiana, with spectacular aerial displays. The event takes place at the beautiful Marquette Park, located right next to Indiana Dunes National Park—an exceptional natural setting for watching aerial acrobatics. Admission to the event is completely free, allowing as many people as possible to enjoy this must-see aviation event.
The weekend’s program promises a wealth of activities, kicking off on Friday evening with a brand-new night show combining drones, lasers, and fireworks; gates open at 5:00 p.m. for a 8:00 p.m. start. On Saturday and Sunday, flight demonstrations will begin at 11:00 a.m., with gates opening at 9:00 a.m., featuring regional, national, and international pilots. On-site, visitors can enjoy an exhibitor village, food and beverage stands, and beachside activities—though it’s recommended that you bring beach chairs and blankets to get comfortable.
