Can I fly my aircraft in?
Absolutely. While the event is not technically a “fly-in” this year, you are welcome to fly your aircraft into KHYI to visit Go Wheels Up. NOTAMS and ground procedures will be available on gowheelsup.live prior to the event.
Can I bring my RV?
Unfortunately, no. In the past we have allowed RV parking but due to it being a one day event we will not be allowing RV parking.
Can I bring my golf cart?
While you will see golf carts on the festival grounds, these will be exclusively for staff and volunteers. Use of personal golf carts is not allowed inside the boundaries of the event. If you travel with a golf cart, you may use your cart with extreme caution to get from your RV to the entry gate. Designated parking near the entry gate will be available.
If you have mobility issues, every effort will be made to accommodate your needs. Please email GWU at info@gowheelsup.live and let them know you’re coming. They will do their best to make your visit fun and comfortable.
Can I bring my own chairs?
Absolutely! While there will be limited seating available in the VIP area, no seating will be provided for general admission. Feel free to bring a folding chair and find a comfy spot on the tarmac to watch the show.
Can I bring outside food or drinks?
Unfortunately, no. Other than water in unopened containers, which we’re allowing because of the time of year and the Texas heat that comes along with it, GWU cannot allow outside food or drink. There will be plenty of vendors on the field to accommodate all guests.
Will there be alcohol served at the event?
Yes. Alcoholic beverages will be served at several bars located throughout the event space. Please drink responsibly.
How do I become a vendor at the event?
Yes, food, retail and exhibit space is now open for registration, however space is limited and running out fast. Please fill out the form located at https://gowheelsup.live/vendor/ for more information.
Are my tickets transferable?
Yes. If you buy tickets and are not able to attend, feel free to sell them or give them away. However, conversely, please only purchase from the GWU website or someone you trust. There have been a lot of posts on the GWU Facebook page from people trying to sell illegitimate tickets by claiming they bought tickets but can’t go. This is a scam.
Is Go Wheels Up supporting any charities?
We’re glad you asked! Yes. Go Wheels Up is pledged to give a portion of net profits to three local charities: The San Marcos Youth Council, The San Marcos Education Foundation and the Commemorative Air Force Central Texas Wing.
Can I display my plane at Go Wheels Up?
If you’d like to offer an aircraft for static display, please contact Clayton Corn at clayton@vast.events with what you have in mind.
Can I fly in the airshow?
All of the airshow performers are professional pilots and contracted specifically for this event. If you qualify, please contact Clayton Corn at clayton@vast.events with details. The show this year is fully scheduled, but there may be space in subsequent years and GWU would love to know what you do.
If I purchase a VIP ticket, can my kids come into the VIP area with me?
Of course! Kids can enter the VIP area with their parents at no additional charge. Kids 11 and under are free, 12-16 are $15 for the entire weekend.
