More than 150,000 expected for Abbotsford Air Show

More than 150,000 people are expected at Abbotsford International Airport this weekend — to help celebrate the 50th anniversary of that city’s “Air Show.”

Spokesperson Mary Lee says the event has a reputation as being exciting, and family-friendly.

“Our feature act this year is the highly-acclaimed Canadian Forces Snowbirds, and we’re really fortunate to have the United States airforce demonstration team, the Thunderbirds… so both demonstrations there alone are quite appealing.”

The air show is seen as one of the largest on the western side of North America.
