The Air Self-Defense Force Naha Air Base (301 Touma, Naha City, Okinawa Prefecture) will hold “Churashima Air Festa 2025” on December 14 from 9:00 to 15:00.
The Blue Impulse, a professional team of the Japan Air Self-Defense Force, will conduct a display flight over the venue from 1:25 p.m. to 1:40 p.m. (walk-down begins at 12:45 p.m.), a joint flight by P-3C/F-15/T-4/U-125A, rotary wing training flights by JASDF UH-60J/JGSDF UH-60JA, and a demonstration scramble by F-15 F-15s are also scheduled for a demonstration scramble.
On the ground, in addition to aircraft, vehicles, equipment, and police dog exhibits, there will be an area for children, including kids’ playground equipment, a kids’ train, and an area to experience “Air Battles,” an original card game of Naha Air Base. There will also be about 45 concession stands selling goods and kitchen cars.
The Yui Rail will operate on a special schedule on the day of the event (the closest station to the venue is Akamine Station). There is no parking on the base, but a free shuttle bus will run from the Chura SUN Beach parking lot to Naha Air Base (not available at the Military Port Parking Lot). In addition, there will be a bicycle parking lot for motorcycles and bicycles near the main gate.
