The Florida Air Museum will welcome visitors for its Grand Reopening Weekend from September 4 through 6, 2026, with free admission offered throughout the three-day event. The celebration will give visitors an opportunity to explore several recent improvements to the museum. Among the most visible additions is a new glass storefront, installed in August, that connects the museum with its playground while providing an expansive view of the Boeing 727 and other aircraft displayed outside.
Visitors will also be able to explore the museum’s new Hall of Fame exhibit, which recognizes the individuals who have contributed to Florida’s rich aviation legacy. Another highlight is the improved National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration exhibit, where guests can experience a simulation of flying through a hurricane and learn more about the work of NOAA’s specialized aircraft and crews.
The reopening weekend marks the beginning of a broader series of planned developments at the museum. Guests will have an opportunity to see the completed improvements, learn more about the museum’s collection and receive an early look at future projects. With free admission available all weekend, the event offers visitors of all ages an opportunity to experience the next chapter in the Florida Air Museum’s development.
