The U.S. Navy Blue Angels will once again headline the Owensboro Air Show, which is coming up Saturday, September 14th and Sunday, September 15th. The show begins over the river in downtown Owensboro at 12:30pm CDT both days. However, the fun actually begins on Friday, September 13th with a preview event at the Owensboro Regional Airport.

While admission to the Owensboro Air Show on Saturday and Sunday is free, there is a $5 per person (CASH ONLY) charge for Friday's event. But note, kids under 12 get into the airport for free as well. Various teams participating in the air show will be on hand for meet and greets opportunities and several aircraft will be on display as well.

It's going to be an exciting weekend in Owensboro and this year's lineup is star-studded. Here's a look at the all the performers flying into town for the show.

Obviously, there are a lot of incredible vantage points along the Ohio River and the Owensboro riverfront. There's no doubt that some of the best seats and viewing spots available are on the lawn behind the Bluegrass Music Hall of Fame & Museum. The museum hosts the ROMP Air Show After Party on Saturday, the 14th, which features live music, food trucks, craft beers and a full bar, and more.
