Minot Air Force Base hosts open houses to enhance the public awareness of Air Force preparedness, to demonstrate modern weapon systems and capabilities, to promote positive community and international relations, to showcase our Airmen and to support Air Force recruiting and retention. Opening Air Force bases to the public provides opportunities for education and generates interest in the military and its role in national security. The term "open house" identifies a traditional activity held on military installations and may or may not include an airshow. The use of the term "open house" is not intended to specify or dictate any predetermined level of access to military installations. An Air Force open house is a community relations activity, which should generally highlight the mission, resources and personnel of the host base.
Information
Due to the current fiscal climate and sequestration, there will be no fly-in air show or base open house this year. We will update this site once information becomes available. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
