Thrills for Everyone at the Flying Circus Airshow Experience the thrill of watching expert pilots at the Flying Circus Airshow as they maneuver their colorful vintage aircraft to demonstrate the barnstorming flight era, which was popular between World War I and World War II and often referred to as the golden years of flight. During the show, you’ll have a front row view of sky divers as they parachute back to earth carrying the American flag, wingwalkers waving to the crowd, and more. After the show, guests can visit with the pilots or purchase add-on biplane rides to view the Virginia countryside from a new vantage point. The show takes place every Sunday in Bealeton (5114 Ritchie Road) from now through October 26. The first plane takes flight promptly at 2:30 p.m., and pre-show events begin at 2:00 p.m. Tickets are $20 for adults, $15 for military members (with valid military ID), $10 for children ages 5–12, and free for those under age 5. There are no advance ticket sales, but the gates open at 11:00 a.m. to purchase tickets on the day of the airshow. The Flying Circus also hosts an annual hot air balloon festival from September 20–21—another spectacular sight as colorful balloons fill the sky.
