Thunder Over the Sound

The 2023 Thunder over the Sound Air & Space Show theme is “Heritage and Honor“– calling back to the 81st Training Wing mission, our role in aviation, and community partnerships.

Partnered for over 80 years, Keesler Air Force Base and the City of Biloxi have come together to bring aerial performers, including the USAF Thunderbirds, static displays, and other demonstrations, to the Mississippi Gulf Coast for a free public event taking place on and off base.
