Arlington Skyfest

Watch the sky light up in a stunning display by hundreds of synchronized drones and professional aerobic pilots at the Arlington SkyFest. Before the light shows begin, walk around and enjoy food from food trucks, check out the displays of military vehicles, or watch a movie on the large outdoor screen. There will also be a kids section with simulations and play activities. This three-day event begins on Friday night, at which time the space's campgrounds will be open for those who wish to camp out for the night, including Friday night entertainment and activities. Saturday will be when you can witness a family-friendly movie, see a classic car show, and witness drones, balloons, and aircrafts light up the sky. Sunday will feature daytime family-friendly activities, face painting, a bouncy house, and free airplane rides for kids aged 8-17. This is a ticket-only event with no tickets available upon arrival. With a ticket purchase, you are granted a double-wide parking space for tailgating, so it is recommended to bring lawn chairs. Tickets will be available in Spring.
