The Bethpage Air Show returns to Jones Beach this May, featuring performances by its showstopping headliners, the United States Navy Blue Angels.

Can’t make it to the weekend shows? Head to Jones Beach on Friday, May 24, from 10am-3pm for a full practice. Pack a picnic lunch and some earplugs for the little ones, as these high-flying machines can pack quite a punch.

To help celebrate the 20th anniversary show, organizers are giving away 30,000 commemorative U.S. Navy Blue Angels signed posters to fans attending the practice show on Friday, May 24, and the weekend show on Saturday, May 25 and Sunday, May 26. The show will also feature other celebratory elements throughout the holiday weekend including a special, 15 ft x 20ft, anniversary cake weighing in at 1,000 pounds, which fans will be able to enjoy on Friday, following an 11am Jones Beach press conference.
