The Blue Angels were back over Atlanta Regional Airport in Peachtree City on October 31 and November 1, 2026, headlining Air Dot Show Atlanta. Their return mattered locally: the 2025 show went on without military jets after the government shutdown grounded them, and local reports say thousands came out for this year’s two days.
What changed this year
Military performers were missing in 2025, and the Blue Angels made them part of the show again in 2026. If you skipped Atlanta last year because the jets were gone, this is the edition that brought them back.
Will the Blue Angels be in Atlanta in 2027?
Not on the schedule we have now. Atlanta does not appear on the Blue Angels 2027 dates on our calendar, which come from the team’s official schedule. The nearest Georgia stop listed is Thunder Over Georgia at Robins Air Force Base in April 2027. See every date in our Blue Angels 2027 schedule.
We have not seen 2027 dates for the Atlanta show itself yet. When the organizer publishes them, the show goes on our calendar.

Worth bringing
- Hearing protection Fast jets are very loud, especially for children. Ear defenders or foam plugs make the day much nicer.
- Sun protection Airfields have little shade: hat, sunglasses and sunscreen, even on cloudy days.
- Binoculars To follow the solos and the formations far out over the display line.
