This 42nd-anniversary event will feature a unique tribute to our military veterans that includes a recreation of wartime air combat with stunning pyrotechnics of fire and controlled explosions. Military aircraft, past and present, will be on display for an up-close and personal one-of-a-kind experience.
Wings Over Camarillo is an event for the whole family!
John Lowe, President of CWA, stated, “We are very excited once again to host our local airshow. This year we will honor the veterans who selflessly served our nation during the Korean War conflict. Our Grand Marshall is retired US Navy Captain Royce Williams, known for his solo dogfight with seven Soviet pilots - which has been called one of the greatest feats in military aviation history. Last year’s event was very successful. We exceeded all attendance records. This allowed us to give back more to our non-profit partners than in previous years. Over the past 12 years, CWA has donated over $651,000 to local nonprofits volunteering at our airshow. This year’s Wings Over Camarillo promises to be more exciting
