CANNON AIR FORCE BASE, N.M. -- Cannon Air Force Base will open its gates to the public on June 6, 2026, for a commemorative air show themed “Normandy to Now.” This event honors the legacy of the D-Day landings while showcasing the evolution of American’s unconventional airpower from WWII to today. General admission to the event is free and open to the public.
As part of the air show, the base plans to host fly-in as well as a car show. Attendees will experience a full lineup of aerial demonstrations, including performances by modern Department of War aircraft, WWII-era warbirds, and aerial performances from civilian pilots as well as Cannon’s own Air Commandos.
