The 6th annual Rose City Airfest brought aviation enthusiasts, military supporters and families together at Tyler Pounds Regional Airport this past weekend, filling the skies over East Texas with historic aircraft, incredible jets and breathtaking aerial performances. With beautiful weather, plenty of food and activities, and a mission to support local veterans, the event offered a memorable weekend for the community.

Rose City Airfest Gives East Texas a Show to Remember

There were thousands of people in attendance on Saturday and Sunday as the gates opened at 9:00 a.m. The airshow kicking off at noon both days, and even those not in attendance had wonderful things to say online as there were so many aircrafts taking flight over East Texas.

There were lots of vendors, plenty of food options for everyone, and it was tremendous to see some of the skydivers that were brave enough to land touch down where all the action was taking place.

In a world that can feel a bit crazy at times it was fun to see thousands of people with huge smiles on their face as they watched all the fun that was going on in Tyler, Texas.
