The Compiègne-Oise Air Show is set to return to the event calendar on Sunday, May 17, 2026, at the Margny-lès-Compiègne Airfield. The event was canceled for 2025 due to insufficient funding but has now been confirmed for the upcoming year.

The show will feature a variety of aircraft and demonstrations, including the French Air Force's Patrouille de France with its Alpha Jets and the Rafale Solo Display. The Airbus A400-M will also perform a tactical display.
