Which day is better with kids?

The main show day has the full flying program and ends with fireworks. In 2026 the day before was open to the public too, with training flights, interactive moments for fans and a meet and greet, and it is the pick if you'd rather avoid the biggest crowds.

Can we get there by metro?

Yes. Take M2 to Aurel Vlaicu and walk about 10 minutes, as the organizers advised in 2026.

What happens if the weather is bad?

Flying depends on the weather. In 2026 the organizers kept a backup date in case the main day couldn't fly, with no times set for it.

Is there food on site?

Yes. There are food trucks and rest areas, so you can stay several hours.

About

BIAS is Bucharest's big air show, run since 2009 by the national airports company with the Romanian Air Force. Aerobatic teams and solo jets from Romania and abroad fly displays over Băneasa Airport, trailing colored smoke, while aircraft wait on the ground to see up close. There are activities for kids and concerts too, so it works for families as much as for aviation fans.
