Welcome To Wings Over Alexandria
Welcome to Wings Over Alexandria, a Minnesota nonprofit dedicated to celebrating aviation, honoring service, and inspiring the next generation to look skyward. Based in Alexandria, we bring the community together through unforgettable aviation experiences, educational opportunities, and partnerships that showcase the power of flight. While our airshow is one of the most exciting ways we share that mission, our vision reaches far beyond one event. We are working to build lasting connections with local businesses, schools, pilots, veterans, and aviation organizations to create opportunities that spark curiosity, support future careers, and keep the spirit of aviation alive for generations to come.
