Paphos Air Base opens its doors. Shows on November 8th and 9th
Paphos Air Base Andreas Papandreou will open to the public on Sunday and Monday, November 8-9, 2026. The National Guard invites you to a meeting with the Air Force on the occasion of its annual Air Force Day.
The program includes a presentation of aircraft, equipment, and weapons systems, an air show, and an exhibition by modelers and aviation clubs. On Sunday, the base will be open from 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM, and on Monday from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM.
Paphos Air Base open to visitors
The open house will offer a close-up look at the equipment used by the Air National Guard. It's an opportunity to visit a military facility that doesn't normally function as a tourist attraction.
Organizers are announcing both ground demonstrations and air shows. However, the information provided does not specify specific aircraft types or times for each show.
Air show and model exhibition
In addition to military equipment, there will be an exhibition curated with the participation of model aircraft enthusiasts and aviation clubs. The announcement combines the activities of the air force with the civilian passion for flying.
For those interested in aviation, the airshow may be the highlight. However, it's worth remembering that the times listed represent the opening hours to the public—they don't imply uninterrupted displays throughout the event.
Shorter on Sunday, from Monday morning
When planning your visit, please note the varying opening hours. Sunday tours will not begin until 1:00 PM. On Mondays, visitors will be welcomed from 10:00 AM.
The celebration coincides with the Air National Guard's annual Air Force Day, which falls on November 8th. The base will also be open to the public the following day.
Before leaving, it's worth checking for any updates to the National Guard's announcement regarding entry and visit arrangements. Confirmed closing times are the same for both days: the tour will end at 4:00 p.m.
