AirVenture Oshkosh 2027 — 74th EAA fly-in, world's busiest airport for one week.
What you need to know
EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2027 (74th) runs Jul 26 – Aug 1, 2027, in Oshkosh, Wisconsin. Pre-position Saturday before AirVenture (Jul 24, 2027) to avoid the Monday morning gate snarl — Camp Scholler crew opens admissions early for vehicles arriving over the weekend, and you'll have your awning + leveling done before the Monday opening-day crowds.
EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2027 runs July 26 - August 1 at Wittman Regional Airport.
The Experimental Aircraft Association stages the world's largest fly-in convention; FAA temporarily classifies Wittman as the busiest airport in the world during the week, with 10,000+ aircraft arriving. On-site RV camping at Camp Scholler is the canonical play: book via EAA reservations (opens prior September), no hookups, designated dump + water fill, generator hours strictly enforced. Off-site bases: Kalahari Resort Oshkosh, Hideaway Lake Campground (Pickett, ~15 mi southwest), Calumet County Park (Stockbridge, ~25 mi south). Bring sun protection — Wittman has minimal shade.
Safety rules and an insider tip
Safety + legal. Wittman air traffic density requires strict pedestrian + ground compliance. The FAA Oshkosh NOTAM (Notice to Airmen) suspends standard radio procedures for the week — visitors must respect all marshalling and flightline rules. Wisconsin late-July humidity hits 75%+; pack rain layers for the standard afternoon thunderstorm pattern. Camp Scholler quiet hours 10 PM - 7 AM.
Insider tip. Pre-position Saturday before AirVenture (Jul 24, 2027) to avoid the Monday morning gate snarl — Camp Scholler crew opens admissions early for vehicles arriving over the weekend, and you'll have your awning + leveling done before the Monday opening-day crowds.
