Big fun was had by all. I’ve been to a lot of air shows. This is my first civilian air show. The volunteers, vendors, law enforcement and facilities were fantastic. A fun day and night. Will definitely return.

If you like airplanes (even just a little bit), you need to go check this show out. I live right down the road and can see/hear the planes for the whole week. That was fine for me last year, but this year I went both Saturday and Sunday and was so amazed with everything that wasn't flying. They have so many vendor booths and tents, tons of food options, military aircraft that don't actually fly during the show that you need to see in person to really get the full experience. Be ready to walk.... a lot. Wear sunscreen. Bring drinks. Be ready to pay for parking, be ready to spend some money. Florida residents get two day passes for the price of one day. Check out some of my pictures to see if it's something you and your family would like to do.

Once again the sun and fun extravaganza was set to turbo blast!! Aircraft’s of various size, shapes and class was at their best. But even the beauties had to take a gentle second place to the immaculate and pristine performance of the United States Air Force. F-16 and F-35s which were at their best, and even loudest as they screamed up down and over the runways at the lakeland Linder international airport.

This auspicious event culminated with a visual delight of rambunctious fireworks with ace aerobatic aircrafts doing spins and loops through the mycelium of cavalcade of colors and ear wrenching sounds. It was an event not to be missed.

Best Airshow around! If you like anything "airplanes", this is your hangout. This year, the Air Force B-1 Lancer Bomber showed up. Also, everything is out in the open air. From vintage aircraft to modern day jet fighters. The volunteers there are the best. They take care of anything they can help you with. Food vendors have terrific food that will keep your tummy full. There's way too much to be able to put it all here so you have to go see for yourself. Don't miss next year's Airshow at the end of March from what I heard.

I had a lot of fun with my boyfriend and his dad who are both pilots. The air show was very cool and full of very talented pilots. There were a lot of planes on display to look at and potentially even buy. If you love aviation you should definitely come by!

It was amazing flying into Sun & fun. I would imagine it will be chaotic flying into the second largest airshow in the country, but surprisingly, everything is super organized.
A tons of amazing exhibitions and have the opportunity to meet with other pilots.
The shows were fantastic, got the opportunity to see the A-10 Warthogs and Thunderbirds.
The food here was a little overpriced, but hey this is Sun n Fun.
Camping by the airplane is the way to go, nice showering area, clean porta potty, and easy access to the expo daily.
If you are pilot, you need to fly to Sun and fun at least once in your career.
We all share the same sky and it’s truly amazing how thousands of pilots will gather together here and Sun and Fun.
Keep flying and keep the blue side up💪🏻

Been going for years. A fun, interactive airshow that is great for the whole family. Be sure to attend their big 50th anniversary next year!

Sun 'n Fun 49th air show was fantastic! This was my first year attending! I volunteered and enjoyed the ma y networking and learning opportunities it offers to us with a passion in aviation! I am in Women In Aviation and Ninety Nine's. I am on my journey to reach my life-long dream of learning to fly! I had a blast at Sun 'n Fun! Thank you for all you do for our kids and for me! The James Roy scholarship is helping our students pay for flying lesson and getting their private pilot license before they graduate from high school! What a way to make it possible at such a young age! Thank you for all you do!!! I am humble and grateful!
