It’s that time of year again. The rumbling of Blue Angels and WWII bombers will be constant in Ocean City this weekend, but it’s a great price to pay to see fancy aerial feats over the beach. Heading into its 10th year, the OC Air Show will include the B-2 Spirit, a strategic bomber with stealth technology, U.S.
Each year, just before the calendar switches to summer, something special happens high above Ocean City, Md that captures the eyes and imaginations of those on the beach and boardwalk down below. The OC Air Show, taking place June 16-17 in 2018, has become one of the most anticipated, most attended annual events in Ocean City.
The OC Air Show brings the nation’s top military and civilian aerial acrobatic acts to the beach for a weekend of jaw dropping flight demos, scintillating stunt shows, fabulous flight formations, pinpoint parachute jumps, and more mesmerizing acts that defy gravity and common sense.
Previous headline acts at the OC Air Show have included the Air Force Thunderbirds, the USMC AV-8B Harrier Jet, The Geico Skytypers, and the Red Bull Helicopter; and in 2015 the OC Air Show is excited to welcome the nation’s most prized flight team- the Blue Angels- to Ocean City.
The Ocean City Air Show is an annual spectacle people look forward to all summer. It’s a weekend of thrills, spills, twists and turns. It’s also, according to my Captain Obvious Junior Ranger calendar, a summer weekend. That means time on the beach and also a ton of events going on around the region that can supplement your Ocean City experience.
You can view the action at the OC Air Show for free from the beach or boardwalk, or join special viewing parties on top of hotels and businesses that put you face-to-face with the the country’s top pilots and flight teams. Regardless of your vantage point, the OC Air Show is sure to capture your eyes and imagination like no other event at the beach.
