Created in 2010, the Toulouse-based association "Des Étoiles et Des Ailes" aims to share and bring to life the unique cultural richness offered by aeronautical and space activities in the Occitanie region. The sector accounts for 100,000 jobs here, including 60,000 around Toulouse.
This 5th edition of the Des Étoiles et des Ailes air show will take place for the first time at Carcassonne Airport, and we thank the local authorities, the town of Carcassonne, Carcassonne Agglo, the Aude department, and the Occitanie region for their support.
The association's board and volunteers are already gearing up to make this air show an extraordinary edition and organize it in the best possible conditions for welcoming the public.
Nothing could be done without the help of our cherished sponsors and organisations together with private and public authorities, and this year more than ever.
This unprecedented event in Carcassonne will once again bring together aviation enthusiasts but also allow a new audience to experience an exceptional weekend around legendary aircraft, air shows, activities, and flight demonstrations.
It is a great opportunity and a magnificent communication tool to showcase our territory's ability to innovate and reinvent itself and its enthusiasm for the aeronautical world.
The Occitan sky is ours to write a new chapter of this unique event together.
