WARBIRDS OVER WANAKA is operated by a charitable Community Trust. Our Vision is to ‘Aspire to be the best Warbirds Airshow in the World.’ Our Mission: ‘To educate through the celebration and promotion of aviation past and present.’
Whether you are a pilot, aviation enthusiast or a family wanting a great day’s entertainment, our unique airshow, set in stunning mountain scenery, will create memories that last a lifetime.
AIRCRAFT COMING
More than 80 aircraft will attend Warbirds Over Wanaka International Airshow 2016 including old favourites the Spitfire, Kittyhawk, Corsair and Catalina. You will see some of the famous Warbirds that helped defend freedom during the world conflicts – heroes of World War II, fighters of the South West Pacific and awesome jets. Our growing sport aircraft contingent will also display both in the air and on the ground.
Jet Racing will once again thrill you with a rematch NZ vs USA – the Americans are determined to win the trophy and this time will be bringing some of their own aircraft. See this amazing spectacle, only at Warbirds Over Wanaka.
Aircraft from two or more Airforces from around the region are expected at WOW and we’re hoping the RNZAF’s aerobatic team will be performing their first full public display in the new Beechcraft trainers. Our fun-loving pyrotechnics team re-create scenes with aircraft from the wars, while military vehicles and personnel re-enact wartime skirmishes metres from the crowd.
