Planes Of Vintage Fest organizers will be discussing a variety of options for the 1st annual Vintage Fest. The Vintage Fest is commemorated to the 75th anniversary of the end of World War Two (WWII). What is scheduled for the vintage fest is a vintage concert, hangar dance, and a one big air display line-up in which it only features all of the Flying Airacft of the Planes of Fame Air Museum. Details are to released sometime in July. Museum has also had concerns since the Miramar Air Show (North America's largest military air show) canceled its 2020 edition. We are in high hopes in light to put the Fest on, in a pandemic we understand the circumstances and well being of our guests, sponsors, and members/bands and we have contingency plans that we are considering now, but we hope for restrictions and bans in all of San Bernardino County to lift the ban by the time our event is around the corner. Tickets are of right now on sale on July 15th. We are hoping to have an answer by then which will be a ”Go” or Cancellation are one of the options we are considering. Thank you! Note: This what I have overheard from the Planes Of Fame Air Museum Event Organizers. Nothing official yet.

Sincerely,
Planes Of Fame Event Organizers

VintageFest Statement

The continuing health risks of large public gatherings and the spread of COVID-19 has forced us to cancel this year’s first-annual VintageFest. It was going to be great – and it will be once we’re able to safely host this celebration and tribute to the 1940s and the World War II era.
