PLEASE REVIEW THESE SAFETY AND SECURITY POLICIES BEFORE ATTENDING

Please note that Lakeland Linder International Airport and SUN ‘n FUN authorized security personnel reserve the right to remove any guest who chooses not to abide by airport and/or SUN ‘n FUN safety policy. Below are some guidelines for what is and is not allowed on our event grounds.

1. What is not allowed to be brought into SUN ‘n FUN Events?
   Coolers, outside food and beverage, camelbacks, weapons of any kind, tent structures, self-standing umbrellas and pets are all prohibited.  If you arrive to the front gate with these items, you will be directed by security to return them to your car or to discard them in a trash receptacle. These restrictions are not applicable to the campground areas; however, these items may not be brought from the campground into the main Expo area.
2. Are masks required due to COVID-19?
   All guests are requested to wear masks except while seated viewing the air show and separated from other groups by at least 6 feet. There are areas where masks will be required due to local regulations. Guests may remove face coverings while actively eating or drinking but should be stationary and maintain appropriate physical distancing. Please see our full COVID-19 policy page for more information. Please note that children under 2 are excluded from the mask requirement.
3. Can I bring a cooler with snacks and drinks to the show?
   Due to numerous security regulations, outside coolers and food/beverage are NOT allowed into the event. Guests will be allowed to bring 1 sealed bottle of water per person, no larger than 1 liter in size.If a patron has special medical dietary restrictions, items will be allowed in reasonable quantities if accompanied by a doctor’s note. You will be asked to present your doctor’s note to security upon entry to the event.

8. Can I bring a wagon for my kids?
   Wagons without a concealing enclosure will be allowed.
