OSHKOSH, WI (WTAQ) – One of the world’s most popular military aerial demonstration teams is returning to Oshkosh this summer.
The Canadian Forces Snowbirds will mark its 50-year anniversary at EAA AirVenture in 2020.
This is the second time in five years the renowned military flight team has stopped in Oshkosh.
The Snowbirds were also the first military team to perform in Oshkosh when they flew over the EAA fly-in during the 1970s.
“There is an elegance in the Snowbirds’ aerial choreography that is matched by no other military demonstration group,” said Rick Larsen, EAA’s vice president of programs, publications, and marketing. “When they appeared at Oshkosh in 2016, the Snowbirds were warmly welcomed not only for their air show performances but for the way they interacted with our attendees, including some team members even camping with their jet on the show grounds. The Snowbirds’ return is just one more reason that EAA AirVenture 2020 will be an event to remember.”
EAA AirVenture is set for July 20-26 at Wittman Regional Airport.
