Running until 20 August, the airshow features aerobatic displays, demonstrations of RAAF and US military aircraft, street vendors, STEM exhibitions, art, entertainment, and other attractions. The Australian Aviation team is on the ground to cover the event.
Pacific Airshow Gold Coast Director, Kevin Elliott, said the event is “beyond honoured” to have Tucker as an ambassador for the show.
The event is being organised by the team behind the Pacific Airshow in Huntington Beach, California, which attracts three million visitors.
Australian Aviation was in Warnervale, NSW to chat to the key players for the event that also featured a display by the RAAF Roulettes alongside warbirds such as the Spitfire and Trojan.
The Australian Defence Force will open the gates of RAAF Base Amberley to the public for the first time since 2008 this October as part of its 2022 Ipswich Amberley Air Tattoo.
The newest Australian airshow will take place at Surfers Paradise over three days, and has been supported by the federal, state and local governments, along with the Australian Defence Force.
