The Oregon International Air Show - formerly the "Portland Rose Festival Air Show" - is an annual event held in Oregon, United States. The event began in 1988, and has an average annual attendance of 55,000. Profits from the show are distributed to local charities.[1]

It is one of the largest civilian air shows on the West Coast of the United States.[2] The Air Show features military and civilian aircraft from the United States and Canada, and on occasion, military and civilian aircraft from other countries such as Britain, France, and Russia.

As of 2020, the Air Show has given back more than $3.3M to over 500 organizations since 1988.[3]
