2026 Madison Air Show Canceled
Madison Airport Events, Inc. has made the difficult decision to cancel the 2026 Madison Air Show.
This decision is the result of the uncertainty surrounding the Madison Regional Airport runway rehabilitation project. While the FAA grant has not yet been officially released and construction has not been formally scheduled, there is a strong possibility that the project could take place during the same timeframe as the air show.
When construction begins, the airport's primary and only runway will be closed for approximately two months. During that time, the airport will not be able to accommodate fixed wing aircraft operations, making it impossible to host an air show.
Rather than ask performers, sponsors, vendors, volunteers, and attendees to make plans only to potentially cancel the event at the last minute, we believe making this decision now is the most responsible course of action for everyone involved.
If the runway project is ultimately delayed until 2027, it will not impact next year's air show. Making this announcement now allows us to begin planning for an outstanding return in 2027 on a newly rehabilitated runway while providing certainty for everyone who supports this event.
