An event more than 100 years in the making, the inaugural Festival of Flight is a celebration of the innovative and world-changing aviation heritage of Dayton and the Miami Valley region. Representatives from the Aviation Trail Parachute Museum will be joining the live entertainment, fun aviation-related educational experiences. The 2021 Festival of Flight will be held in Lot 1 on Wright State University's Dayton campus just in front of the student union (CLICK HERE for map).


Join us on Saturday, September 25, on the grounds of Wright State University for a day full of live entertainment, fun aviation-related educational experiences, and creative local innovations. Grab food from some of the area’s most popular food trucks, dance to favorite local bands, and bring the family to explore the Kids Zone.


Aviation Trail and the Parachute Museum will be raising parachutes and celebrating the 102nd Anniversary of the first freefall. Try on a parachute (no jumping allowed). Watch the Fastrax Skydiving team jump at our booth. Plenty of thrills! Safe for all ages.
