The Boundary Bay Air Show promises to be bigger and better this year!
This Saturday, July 13, Alpha Aviation will hold the event at the Boundary Bay Airport.
The airshow, also featuring a beer and wine garden and other attractions, has been a popular community event with 15,000 people or more attending each year.
The city and Alpha Aviation have again developed an airshow traffic management and parking plan to manage the on-site and off-site parking facilities and address the anticipated traffic.
On-site parking will be available for $25, and payment can be made via credit card using the payment machines located in front of the main terminal entrance at the Boundary Bay Airport or through several parking payment mobile applications.
Free parking and shuttle service is available at Paterson Park and our East Ladner Parking Lot (4626 88 Street). The free shuttle service will run every 10 to 15 minutes starting at 9:15 a.m. Accessible parking and shuttle pick-up is available at both locations.
Strollers and collapsible wagons are allowed on buses; no coolers please. Specialty shuttles are available with lifts and storage for accessibility aids. However, the wait times may be slightly longer as not all shuttles are equipped for this.
The free event has grown in size over the years, becoming the largest spectator special event that Delta participates in each summer.
The air show takes place at historic Boundary Bay Airport that was initially opened in 1941 by the Royal Canadian Air Force as a pilots’ training base for the Second World War.
Gates will open at 11 a.m. with the opening ceremonies and performances starting at noon.
Boundary Bay Airport is located at 7800 Alpha Way in East Ladner.
