After a six-month delay, the Fort Lauderdale Air Show will take over the skies above Fort Lauderdale Beach on Nov. 21-22.
The two-day show, which was originally scheduled for May 2-3, will include all four of the U.S. Air Force fighter jet demonstration teams: the F-22 Raptor, the F-35 Lightning II, the A-10 Thunderbolt II and the F-16 Viper. Civilian performance teams are also scheduled to attend.
Air Show officials will implement a series of “Stay Safe and Separate Initiatives” to help keep guests safe.
“The stage for the Fort Lauderdale Air Show is 2 miles wide and 500 feet high,” said Chris Lagerbloom, city manager for Fort Lauderdale, in a news release. “Spectators can watch from their backyard, balcony, boat or the beach, making it the ideal event for our community to host in the era of social distancing.”
Although the Air Show is free, VIP and premium viewing tickets are on sale. Tickets bought for the original date in May can be used at the November event or exchanged for the 2021 Air Show.
