The Pacific Airshow is an annual airshow held in Huntington Beach, California, and Gold Coast, Queensland.

The first Pacific Airshow (first called the Breitling Huntington Beach Airshow, then later The Great Pacific Airshow) took place in 2016, attracting hundreds of thousands to Huntington Beach for a display of aviation skill and military might soaring over the beach in Southern California.[2] In only five years, Pacific Airshow has twice been named Civilian Airshow of the Year by the U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds and in 2019 named among the Top 5 Air Shows by USA Today’s 10Best. It has also been recognized as the Civilian Air Show Site of the Year by the U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds in 2022.[3] The event has become a popular fall event for residents and visitors from as far away as Europe and Asia while delivering a more than $105 million economic impact to the City of Huntington Beach.[4]
The air show in 2020 was canceled due to public health concerns associated with the COVID-19 outbreak. The third and final day of the event was cancelled in response to the 2021 Orange County oil spill[5]
