Peach State Aerodrome is home to several events throughout the year that are open to the public. For all upcoming events, visit our Calendar page.

Vintage Day

Vintage Day is held each June! Fun for the whole family, Vintage Day features vintage airplanes, cars, and tractors. Visitors will enjoy watching the airplanes fly in and taking part in an old-fashioned cake walk. Kids will love the candy drop, as Doug Davis’ famous fly by is recreated, including dropping Babe Ruth candy bars out of a plane for the kids.
