AirVenture 2026 Blue Barn Forums Schedule

The Blue Barn is home base for chapter members during EAA AirVenture Oshkosh! The Blue Barn is the perfect place to stop in, cool off, and connect with the people who make the chapter network what it is.

Located on Knapp Street across from the Forums Plaza, the Blue Barn isn't just another venue on your schedule. It's where chapter members from all over the country naturally gather throughout the week to talk shop, swap stories, and pick up ideas they can bring back home.

Chapters are one of the strongest ties binding aviation communities nationwide. When you drop by the Blue Barn, you can be sure to find:

  • New ideas to help your chapter grow and stay active as well as make connections with other chapter leaders
  • Daily forums provided by volunteers and staff to introduce or delve into best chapter practices
  • Hands-on displays showcasing real chapter programs and success stories from across the country
  • An opportunity to test your speed in the daily World's Fastest Clecoer Contest!
  • Register for a consultation with tax attorney Patti Arthur for your chapter needs
