Event Details
The OC Air Show is back! Prepare for a weekend of jaw-dropping aerial displays on June 14-15, as the iconic Blue Angels grace the skies above Ocean City’s famous beach and boardwalk for the annual Ocean City Air Show on the beach in Maryland.
The 2025 Tour will feature renowned U.S. military demonstration teams including the U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds and the U.S. Navy Blue Angels, along with aircraft demonstrations from various military branches and civilian aircraft piloted by some of the world’s best aviators.
The Maryland ANG 175th Wing will perform a close air support demo, showcasing the power, precision and low level agility that make the A-10 a battlefield legend. Don’t miss your chance to see these iconic “warthogs” flu like they were built to – low, loud and lethal!
Tickets
Discounted Air Show tickets are on sale if you purchase in advance. Here are your ticket options for the best viewing areas and VIP sections. You can come & go as you please throughout the day.
The Best Places to View the Air Show in Ocean City
The Air Show stage covers about 2 miles, so it will be hard to miss, but anywhere on the beach and Boardwalk between 6th and 26th street should be a prime spot. The show’s center will be between 13th and 17th street.
You can watch for free from most of Ocean City, but the ticketed areas will offer the best viewing, show narration, reserved seating and dedicated bathrooms.
Viewing By Boat
Watching the Ocean City Air Show by boat is a popular way to view the show. There is some restricted area and a designated area and rules for watching by boat.
Aircraft Performing in the Show
Air Show
Practice schedules are subject to change and are therefore not published. You will likely see planes flying all throughout the week prior to the show. We are unable to post the practice schedules as they are subject to change.
All the major acts will perform both days. The specific line-ups of each day’s show are posted about 1-2 weeks prior to the show.
A good portion of the show is viewable from 6th Street to 26th Street. The ticketed beach areas are at show center from 13th Street to 17th Street. We cannot guarantee views outside of the ticketed areas.
Ear protection is recommended, especially for children under 5 who may be startled by the noise of the aerial performance teams.
Traffic during the Air Show is very busy, so if at all possible, leave the car behind and either walk or take the bus. If you need to take the car, you can park at the West Ocean City Park and Ride, and then either walk or take the bus over the Rout 50 Bridge. After the show is finished, don’t plan to be any where fast! Spend sometime at the beach, stay for dinner, then head home or back to your hotel.
