Well luckily for you, there’s an event that satisfies everyone’s needs commencing on October 5, 2024, in Sandbridge Beach!

Known as Warbirds Over the Beach, this event is a two-day flying extravaganza at the Military Aviation Museum in Virginia Beach. The museum, sometimes called “Warbird Heaven,” sits on a 130-acre plot of land, where they will be hosting this air show that sees one of the largest flying collections of World War II warbirds take flight to fascinate you!

The museum itself is a living history museum: an airfield surrounded by historic buildings like the Goxhill Watch Office, the water tower, and multiple hangers with both World War I and II planes housed within.
