The 2026 Pensacola Beach Blue Angels Air Show Week Schedule

July 15th – 18th 2026 | Featuring the US Navy Blue Angels

Pensacola’s hometown heroes will take center stage during a historic summer celebration as the 2026 Pensacola Beach Air Show returns July 15 to 18, hosted by the Santa Rosa Island Authority.

Set against the sweeping shoreline of the Gulf, the show becomes more than an air demonstration.
