Can’t see the Air Force Thunderbirds at the Air Force Graduation? They’ll be back in Colorado this summer

May 21, 2025, 3:43 PM

Hands down one of the coolest things I’ve ever seen is the Air Force Thunderbirds show. And lucky for us in Colorado there will be multiple chances to see them in 2025!

First they’ll do their annual performance as part of the Air Force Academy graduation in Colorado Springs on Thursday, May 29.

Then they’ll also be back in the northern part of the state for the The Great Colorado Air Show on Saturday, Sept. 20, and Sunday, Sept. 21, at The Northern Colorado Regional Airport in Loveland. That event will feature many aerial displays from multiple planes outside of the Thunderbirds. Tickets are on sale at GreatColoradoAirShow.com.

Not in Colorado, but just across the border, the Thunderbirds will also do a performance at Cheyenne Frontier Days on Saturday, July 26.
