Wings Over Shellharbour is set to return to the Illawarra on 22–23 May 2027 at Shellharbour Airport after more than 20,000 spectators attended this year’s successful airshow.
Close to 40 aircraft took to the skies in this year’s airshow, delivering an estimated $10 million economic impact for the Illawarra region, cementing the event’s place on the aviation calendar.
“We are really excited to bring this airshow to the crowds every year for an unforgettable weekend of fast jets, military performers, legendary warbirds, and breathtaking aerobatics and stunts from the very best aviators in the country, alongside a ground festival of static aircraft, carnival rides, market stalls, food vendors and live entertainment,” said Paul Bennet, Founder of Paul Bennet Airshows.
“There aren’t many places in the world where you can get this close to these specialised aircraft with the flight line right in front of you and the HARS Aviation Museum close by enabling people to sit in, climb through and get their hands on historic aircraft like the Super Constellation and Boeing 747,” said Mr Bennet.
“You don’t just watch this airshow. You’re in it.”
