Honoring The Past, Inspiring The Future, Nov. 7 To 9, Witham Field, Stuart

      The skies above Stuart will roar to life this November as the 2025 Stuart Air Show returns for three unforgettable days of aviation excellence, history, and community spirit. From cutting-edge fighter jets to rare pieces of living history, this year’s lineup promises to inspire, entertain and unite audiences of all ages.

The Ultimate Lineup

      Headlining the show is the F-35 Lightning II Demo Team, showcasing the most lethal, survivable and connected fighter aircraft in the world. Flown by Demo Pilot Major Melanie “MACH” Kluesner, the F-35’s agility and raw power will demonstrate why it’s a cornerstone of national security and a symbol of technological advancement.

      Joining the roster is the VFA-122 West Coast Rhino Demo Team with the F/A-18F Super Hornet, delivering high-speed maneuvers and thunderous flybys that will shake the skies. For precision and elegance, the Northern Stars Aerobatic Team will dazzle with intricate formations and gravity-defying stunts.

      On the ground, history buffs will be in for a rare treat—the B-29 Superfortress “Doc,” one of only two flying in the entire world, will be on static display. Visitors can stand in the shadow of this World War II icon, a reminder of the bravery and ingenuity that helped shape history.

Friday Night Spectacle

      The weekend kicks off with the famous Friday Night Air Show & Dirty Flight Suit Party presented by TD Bank on Nov. 7. Gates open at 4 p.m., with flying starting at 5:30 p.m. As night falls, the sky will light up with illuminated aerobatic routines, a dazzling fireworks finale, and a choreographed drone show set to music.

Weekend Fun For All

      On Saturday and Sunday, gates open at 9 a.m., with aerial performances beginning around 11:30 a.m. and continuing until 5 p.m. Beyond the aerial thrills, the Stuart Air Show offers interactive exhibits, displays from local organizations, food vendors, and activities for all ages—making it more than just a show, but a full community experience.

Honoring Service And Inspiring The Next Generation

      The Stuart Air Show is proud to offer discounted tickets for veterans, seniors and youth, recognizing the contributions of those who have served and ensuring families across the Treasure Coast can enjoy the event.

      Director of Operations Chrissy Valvano shared, “This year’s show is a celebration of both our future and our history. We’re thrilled to bring together world-class performers, historic aircraft and our amazing community for a weekend that inspires pride, wonder and connection.”
