The Thunder Over the Heartland Airshow Presented by CoreFirst Bank & Trust is pleased to provide accessibility support to attendees needing additional assistance. Please review the following information, and if you have additional questions or concerns.  Contact us directly for additional assistance.

Parking

General Parking allows guests a space to park on the airport within walking distance to the main entry gate. These spaces must be purchased in advance. A limited number will be available each day. Ticket will only be good for the day in which it’s purchased.

• OCT. 11 (Friday) – Evening Show
• OCT. 12 (Saturday) – Evening Show
• OCT. 13 (Sunday) – Afternoon Show

*Air Show Admission MUST be purchased separately.  View Ticket Options

NOTE: All vehicles parking at the show will be required to obtain a parking pass online in advance. Because there is limited capacity for parking and traffic ingress/egress, once all parking passes have been reserved, no additional parking will be available. Parking passes WILL NOT be available for purchase at the gate. No buses or RVs.

Show Grounds

Most of the air show is on hard surface. There are some grassy areas, but they are easily avoidable and should not impede your ability to maneuver around the show to see the ground displays and exhibits.

Bathrooms

There will be several handicap accessible portable bathrooms located around show grounds. Additionally, in premium seating areas, there will be handicap accessible portable bathrooms exclusive to those areas.

Service Animals

Per ADA Guidelines, recognized service animals are permitted. However, we would advise you to strongly consider whether to bring a service animal to the event. Jet aircraft can be very loud, the airport ramp surface can get very hot on the paws and animals must be always under control.

Mobility Aids

We will not have the option to rent scooters, wheelchairs and other mobility aids. However, mobility aids are welcome into the show. If you are a general admission ticket holder, we encourage you to bring in your own chairs, as seating in General Admission is not provided.

Premium Seating

All Premium Seating areas are easily accessible and are on hard surfaces. If you need additional assistance while in your seating area, please see the volunteers, who will be located throughout the premium seating areas.

Service Animals

Per ADA Guidelines, recognized service animals are permitted. However, we would advise you to strongly consider whether to bring a service animal to the event. Jet aircraft can be very loud, the airport ramp surface can get very hot on the paws and animals must be always under control.

Shade

Shade is limited at the air show. If you cannot be in the sun for long periods, we recommend one of our premium seating areas, or bringing a small hand-held umbrella. Pop-Up tents are not permitted.

Hearing Protection

If you or anyone in your group is sensitive to loud sounds, we recommend bringing your own ear protection. While some vendors may sell hearing protection, we cannot guarantee supplies will last.
