Airshow London Presents

Canada’s first socially responsible and physically distant air show!

Airshow London is excited to present SKYDRIVE. Our 2020 air show September 12 & 13 will be held as a drive-in event, offering Canada’s first socially responsible and physically distant air show! Join us for a spectacular and unprecedented aerial display FEATURING SEVEN AMERICAN MILITARY DEMONSTRATION TEAMS.

From Airshow London

The health and safety of our guests and volunteers is Airshow London’s highest priority. As the Ontario government moved into Phase 2 of reopening the province in June, this included drive-in events. As a result, Airshow London spent much time reformatting its traditional structure to create a safe, innovative, and still-exciting event that conforms to public health guidelines and offers a family-friendly and memorable experience.

We understand and respect anyone’s hesitation. For those who are looking for reassurance, please read more details below, and know, we are members of your community, with families ourselves and would not execute this event without the utmost confidence that we are minimizing risk to our guests.

We invite you to join us, support us, and get excited with us. Let’s get back together – although at least 6-feet apart – and celebrate being social again. And what better way to do that than under the roar of flight – that sparks the imagination and inspires us to soar.

Sincerely,
Airshow London

Gates are open from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM. Once the show ends, volunteers will direct vehicles to the exits row by row.
This year, there will be no Static Display (additional aircraft parked all weekend for visitors to climb aboard), food vendors, or displays.
