Bali International Airshow
Aviation Displays & Aircraft Exhibitions
The Bali International Airshow combines thrilling aerial displays with static aircraft exhibitions and an aerospace trade event. It mixes serious industry exhibitions with family-friendly flying displays, bringing aviation enthusiasts and the public together near Bali's main airport.
The Bali International Airshow is a large-scale aviation event that pairs an aerospace industry exhibition and conference with public-facing flying displays. Staged near I Gusti Ngurah Rai International Airport, it positions Bali as a regional hub for the aviation and aerospace sector while also offering a spectacle for enthusiasts and families.
The trade side of the event gathers airlines, manufacturers, defence and civil aviation operators, and aerospace suppliers for exhibitions, business meetings, and conferences. Static displays of aircraft — from commercial and private planes to military types — let visitors get up close to machines they would normally only see from afar.
For the public, the highlight is the flying programme: aerobatic teams and demonstration flights performing precision manoeuvres overhead. It is an exciting, family-friendly day out for anyone fascinated by flight, with the chance to watch displays, explore exhibits, and learn about the industry.
This is a periodic event rather than an annual fixture, and details such as exact dates, public days, and ticketing are confirmed per edition. If you are interested, watch the official Bali International Airshow channels for announcements about the next event and how to attend.
