The Great New England Air Show is an annual two-day air show held in Western Massachusetts. The show is held every year in the Pioneer Valley and alternates between two Airbases in the area; Westover Air Reserve Base in Chicopee and Barnes Air National Guard Base in Westfield. The next air show is scheduled for May 13-14, 2023, at the Barnes Air National Guard Base in Westfield, Massachusetts.

History
In January of 2012, it was announced the show would make a return to Westover later that August with a U.S. Navy F-18 Hornet demonstration team and a civilian group piloting Russian MIG 23s. Approximately 210,000 attended the highly anticipated 2012 show, Although no major jet team headlined the show, military demonstrations by the F/A-18F Super Hornet, F-15C Eagles, V-22 Osprey, B-2 Spirit Stealth Bomber, and a locally based C-5 Galaxy along with civilian aerobatics and warbirds kept spectators entertained; over 60 aircraft were on static display making it the biggest airshow to take place at that location since 1974.

The next air show was July 14 and 15, 2015 celebrating the 75th anniversary of Westover ARB with the US Navy's Blue Angels headlining in their first appearance at the base.

In March of 2018, it was announced the show would make a return to Westover later that summer with the Air Force's demonstration team the Thunderbirds making a return after 10 years.
