Show and Shine Information & Schedule
The Show and Shine will take place on Saturday, May 7th from 9 am to 5 pm at the Alaska State Fairgrounds.
- 9-10 am: aircraft arrive
- 10 am-2 pm: aircraft viewing and voting
- 4 pm: award ceremony
- After the award ceremony ends and patrons vacate the fairgrounds: aircraft are permitted to depart. The Gathering ends for the day at 5 pm; patrons often linger, so plan to take your time getting out.

- Propellors must remain still while patrons attend the event.
- Aircraft must remain tied down throughout the event.
- Bring your own tie-down ropes and chocks. Anchors will be provided. Steak or screw-type anchors are not-authorized on the fairgrounds due to shallowly-buried electrical wires.
