Military Flyovers & Artist Withdrawals

Military jets including B-52s and F-35s are set to roar over the Great American State Fair on June 24th and 25th as part of the nation’s 250th anniversary celebrations, organized by Freedom 250 linked to the White House. The air shows will feature iconic aircraft like the F-16, B-2 Spirit, and a multi-gen formation including F-15, F-18, and F-35C. But tensions rise as major musicians reportedly pulled out over President Trump headlining — though Lee Greenwood and Christopher Macchio will still perform. The fair also brings state exhibits and classic rides to the National Mall, while construction ramps up amid preparations from competing groups — so expect closures if you’re planning to attend.
