“SNOWBIRD CANTINA” SPICES UP THE TWILIGHT SHOW AND DINNER FRIDAY NIGHT AT THE CHICO AIR SHOW

 

(CHICO, Calif.) – Friday, September 24th not only marks the opening of the Chico Air Show but also kicks off the “Snowbird Cantina” Twilight Show and Dinner at 4 p.m. catered by La Cocina Economica.  This evening offers a “pre-view” of the Air Show’s aerial performers, as they warm up with their practice runs Friday night.

 

In order to make this a full evening, admission to the Twilight Show and Dinner at the Flightline will include a great Mexican meal, dancing, beverages and a front row view.  Kicking off the evening will be a catered dinner by La Cocina Economica!  For starters the Flightline club will be provided with appetizing chips and salsa!  Continuing the evening of savory food and fun, the main course will include: a southwest salad, grilled asada, carnitas and chicken tacos, vegetarian tamales accompanied with ranchero sauce along with delicious rice and beans.  For dessert, Mexican chocolate cupcakes will be offered as a special treat after dinner!

 

Not only will this “date like atmosphere” provide you with a mouth watering dinner experience but Flightline goers will also be able to enjoy dancing and live music from “a shameless rock ‘n roll band,” Hot Flash, led by Holly Taylor.

 

Adding to the Twilight Show and Dinner, dancing and beverages, will be a front row sneak peak of the air show performers practicing aerial maneuvers and landings for the weekend!

Pre-sale tickets for the Twilight Show and Dinner are available at $30 for adults and $15 for children ages 6-12.

 

For the air show enthusiast who only wants to watch the performers practicing on Friday evening the Chico Air Show offers a discounted price separate from the Flightline Club’s Twilight Dinner.  The price for just admission to the general Air Show grounds is $10 in advance and $15 at the gate for adults.  While the prices for children ages 6-12 are $5, and children 5 years old or younger admission is free.  Local Chico vendors will be present this evening in case the Flightline club is not what you are looking for but still want a tasty snack!

 

Major sponsors of the Chico Air Show include: Northern California National Bank, Stott Outdoor Advertising and the City of Chico.

 

Tickets are available at Northern California National Bank, Raley’s, the Chico Air Museum, and the Chico Chamber of Commerce.  You may also visit the Chico Air Show website to purchase tickets or for further information at www.chicoairshow.org.
