AIRFest 30 takes place over Labor Day weekend - August 30 - September 2, 2024. Late summer is "prime-time" for rocketry in Kansas; we experience generally pleasant temperatures and pristine field conditions after the wheat harvest and most fields are plowed in preparation for next year's crops. Those who have joined us for AIRFest or LDRS in the past know that Argonia is the place to be for the final summer blast.

For our AIRFest regulars, you will enjoy all the great conditions you have found at past launches: the wide-open space of the Kansas prairie; plenty of launch pads - no waiting; super-high 50,000' waiver. In addition to all that, you will be treated a real show by rocketeers from all across the U.S.A who bring their extreme projects to Argonia to enjoy the great launching conditions in Kansas.

The current edition of the TRA Unified Safety Code permits adult members of TRA and NAR to launch high-power rockets throughout the full 4 days of AIRFest. Find more details on the Flyer Info page.

Who will fly the highest or the fastest? Which rocket will be the loudest or the most "spectacular"? Join us for AIRFest 30 and find out for yourself - as usual, this will be a "can't miss" event.
