The bi-annual “Defenders of Liberty” air show will take place at Barksdale Air Force Base, La., March 29-30, 2025. The event will include static displays and demonstrations of many different types of military acts & aircraft, featuring models such as the U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds, B-52H Stratofortress and Army Golden Knights parachute team. In addition to showcasing the mission’s aircraft capabilities, this show builds a connection between Barksdale and the local community by giving visitors the opportunity to learn about the importance of its role.

The MindGym arrived at Barksdale to help train the minds of Airmen who are ready to strengthen their cognitive health. It utilizes the combined power of isolation, reflection, light, and sound to create an immersive environment designed to help you improve focus, manage stress, and build resilience.
Operation Bright Holiday is a base initiative where the program will buy your ticket home for the holidays. For Airmen stationed here, this isn’t an imaginary scenario but a reality.
