The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company will once again bring its iconic Goodyear Blimp to EAA AirVenture Oshkosh, with Wingfoot One scheduled to arrive on Thursday, July 23, during the world’s largest fly-in convention. EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2026 takes place July 20–26 at Wittman Regional Airport. The appearance continues a decades-long tradition of Goodyear blimps flying over Oshkosh. This year’s visit also marks 55 years since the Goodyear Blimp America made its first appearance at the EAA fly-in in 1971. Most recently, Goodyear celebrated the 100th anniversary of its first branded blimp, Pilgrim, by bringing two blimps to AirVenture in 2025. Throughout the week, Wingfoot One is expected to make several flights over the grounds, becoming one of the event’s most recognizable attractions both in the air and while parked near Pioneer Airport.
