“Breakfast with the Blues” kicked off Red, White and Blues week bright and early on Wednesday, generating excitement leading up to the official show on Pensacola Beach on Saturday. If parking is any indication—the Casino Beach parking lot was filled by about 7 a.m.—it’s going to be jam-packed all weekend.
The Pensacola News Journal will have live coverage throughout the weekend, including live blogs, video and photo galleries of all the action in the sky and on the sand. Visit pnj.com to get the latest news, photos and videos.
Blue Angels Pensacola Beach Air Show week schedule
The Blue Angels Pensacola Beach Air Show schedule for the week remains unchanged from previous years.
Thursday’s practice flight will feature the Blue Angels performing the same maneuvers fans will see on Friday and Saturday. It’s a great option for anyone who just wants to see the Blue Angels perform. There will be fewer crowds, but don’t expect an empty beach.
The full air show takes place on Friday and Saturday, with flight demonstrations starting 30 minutes earlier than they normally do. The air show on Friday is nearly identical to Saturday’s, with a couple of exceptions marked in the daily schedule below.
