WHAT: The Italian Air Force (Aeronautica Militare) is set to deploy its aircraft and personnel across the ocean to North America for the first time in over 30 years. On their journey, the renowned Italian jet demonstration team, the “Frecce Tricolori”, will be flying over the Toronto skyline on August 1, 2024 between 4:30 p.m. and 5:30 p.m. The team last performed in Toronto in 1986 as part of the Canadian International Air Show lineup.

Due to scheduling constraints, they will depart North America before this year’s Toronto air show. Coinciding with the Royal Canadian Air Force’s 100th Anniversary, the North American Tour will showcase the capabilities of Italy’s highly technological and forward-thinking Air Force.

"Our personnel and cutting-edge equipment can be rapidly deployed anywhere in the world, ensuring our ability to operate effectively in any global location," says Colonel Stefano Pietropaoli of the Aeronautica Militare. "We are excited to return to Toronto after 38 years, flying the Frecce over the skyline."
