Here’s how to watch the Air Force Thunderbirds performance in Colorado on May 30

May 29, 2024, 5:14 PM | Updated: 9:47 pm

One of the coolest things you’ll ever see is a performance by the famous Air Force Thunderbirds, and tomorrow (May 30) you have that chance in Colorado.

The Thunderbirds will be part of the graduation ceremony at the U.S. Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs.

The Thunderbirds will fly over around 1:15 p.m. as the graduation ceremony ends. Of course this time is subject to change without notice.

The best view of the Thunderbirds’ post-graduation flyover will be east of Interstate near the Air Force Academy.

For public safety, drivers are reminded not to stop along Interstate 25 or any roads on the Academy to watch the Thunderbirds.

The Western Museum of Mining will hold a watch party nearby at 225 North Gate Boulevard. Tickets are $5 per vehicle and benefit the museum.
