The Florida International Air Show (FIAS) organization is a Florida 501c4 nonprofit corporation staffed entirely by volunteers. The air show is a multi-day event showcasing nationally known performers and exciting static displays of aircraft and vehicles. The air show offers opportunities for attendees to learn more about aviation, space, and military services.

FIAS provides multiple benefits to the community through direct charitable donations and fundraising opportunities for nonprofit and civic groups during the show. FIAS events provide beneficial exposure to the Punta Gorda Airport as a significant local economic asset. Since conception, the Air Show has distributed over $3 million to southwest Florida working charities.
