Join us on Saturday, March 28, 2026, at Dallas Executive Airport for our annual event set in a hangar that is home to a few of our historic fleet of aircraft.

The evening begins with a festive cocktail reception, emceed by Dallas’ own Mike Doocy. Guests will enjoy period-centric food stations, exclusive photo opportunities, a cash bar, and can dance the night away to live music performed by The World Famous Glenn Miller Orchestra.

For an elevated experience, VIP tickets include exclusive access to a private VIP reception offering a behind-the-scenes look at the largest World War II aircraft nose art display, along with a curated collection of one-of-a-kind artifacts from the era. VIP guests will also enjoy a dedicated open bar throughout the evening.

Designed to bring together community, industry, and aviation enthusiasts, The Victory Ball is a night of timeless jazz, camaraderie, and purpose. Proceeds from the event support the educational programs of the Commemorative Air Force and the Henry B. Tippie National Aviation Education Center—ensuring that aviation history and inspiration continue to soar for generations to come.

Info: VIP ticket holders will enjoy a pre-event reception with passed hors d' oeuvres and period specialty cocktails in our one-of-a-kind Nose Art Gallery with a guided tour of unique WWII artifacts.
