Palm Springs Air Museum celebrates 25th Silver Anniversary

The Palm Springs Air Museum kicked off its three-day celebration of its 25th Silver Anniversary.

The museum held in-person festivities with the band, Wartime Radio Singers, and the pop vocal group, The Company Men, performing throughout the evening as guests enjoyed food and plenty of historic planes.

Fred Bell, vice chairman of the Palm Springs Air Museum, said that they typically hold a big gala every year, but due to the pandemic, they decided to spread out the celebrations to ensure attendees have plenty of distance.

Attendees also got to take one last look at the F-117 Nighthawk before its full restoration and unveiling in November.

These limited availability tickets are $225 each. For more info, visit PSAirMuseum.org/silver/
