Take Flight with Fun at the New Carlisle Heritage of Flight Festival
The 2024 Heritage of Flight Festival returns Oct 4-6
Gear up for a weekend celebrating aviation history and small-town charm at the New Carlisle Heritage of Flight Festival, held October 4-6, 2024! This three-day extravaganza in beautiful New Carlisle, Ohio, promises a fun-filled escape for the whole family.
Don't miss the Classic Cruise-In on Friday evening. Main Street transforms into a haven for polished chrome and vintage wheels. Admire an array of classic cars, muscle cars, and antique automobiles, or proudly show off your own ride.
The star of the show is undoubtedly the "Parade of Planes," held on Saturday. Witness a dazzling display of aircraft soaring over the festival grounds, igniting imaginations and rekindling the pioneering spirit of flight. On the ground, a street fair unfolds along Main Street. Browse through a delightful mix of vendors offering handcrafted treasures, local delicacies, and festival trinkets.
Enjoy the carnival rides and games all weekend long. Put your appetite to the test at delicious food stalls, offering everything from juicy barbeque to sweet funnel cakes. Live entertainment keeps the energy high throughout the weekend, featuring local bands and performers. Feeling adventurous? How about a Tethered Balloon Ride!
For a more laid-back experience, take a scenic horse-drawn carriage ride through the town. History buffs will enjoy exploring the unique exhibits, while the young ones can unleash their inner pilot at the kiddie tractor pull. Feeling peckish? Don't miss the crowd-pleasing wing-eating contest – a guaranteed fun (and messy!) highlight.
The Heritage of Flight Festival offers something for everyone. It's a chance to celebrate the rich history of aviation, indulge in family-friendly entertainment, and create lasting memories in a charming Ohio town. So mark your calendars and prepare for a weekend that takes flight!
