The 2020 Midsouth Airshow Was Scheduled To Take Place June 20-21

It's yet another sign of the times. The 2020 Midsouth Airshow scheduled to take place June 20-21 has been cancelled in attempt to slow the spread of coronavirus.

All eyes should have been on the Millington-Memphis Airport June 20 & 21, 2020 as the U.S. Navy Blue Angels were scheduled to return to perform at the Midsouth Airshow -- a 'first-class aviation event' that was to feature military demonstrations, aerobatic performances, static display aircraft, and local emergency response helicopters.

But like so many airshows on the 2020 roster, it was not to be. "The decision is in step with community, state and federal guidance of suspending or canceling events with large gatherings, aimed at preventing the spread of COVID-19."

Officials tell us that refunds will be provided for those who have already bought tickets for the event. Refunds may take seven to ten business days to be processed.

The event adds that, "We are saddened that we have to cancel our favorite event of the year, but want to reiterate that safety is our number one priority and while we understand this news is disappointing to our air show fans, sponsors and supporters, we understand it is the right thing to do. We want to thank all our sponsors and volunteers for all the hard work that was put into the planning of this incredible event and look forward to the 2021 Midsouth Airshow."
