You will see some of the famous Warbirds that helped defend freedom during the world conflicts - heroes of World War II, fighters of the South West Pacific and awesome jets. Our growing sport aircraft contingent will also display both in the air and on the ground. |

Jet Racing will once again thrill you with a rematch NZ vs USA - the Americans are determined to win the trophy and this time will be bringing some of their own aircraft. See this amazing spectacle, only at Warbirds Over Wanaka. Aircraft from two or more Airforces from around the region are expected at WOW and we are hoping the RNZAFs aerobatic team will be performing their first full public display in the new Beechcraft trainers. Our fun-loving pyrotechnics team re-create scenes with aircraft from the wars, while military vehicles and personnel re-enact wartime skirmishes metres from the crowd. See the website for further airshow information. Ticketing details under - 2016 Airshow /FAQ see Ticketing. |
