In 2019 the Oregon International Air Show switched to the McMinnville Municipal Airport. The Air Show promotes aviation while honoring the military and veterans. In addition to the economic surge provided by the Air Show, the Oregon International Air Show involves the community and provides grants for McMinnville. Since 1988 more than $3 million has donated back throughout McMinnville (Yamhill County), Hillsboro (Washington County), and throughout Oregon. Express Employment Professionals, Stoller Family Estates, and Xenium are the lead sponsors for the upcoming 2020 Air Show.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Oregon Air Show: Official Website |url=https://oregonairshow.com/ |access-date=November 10, 2021 |website=oregonairshow.com/ |publisher=Oregon International Air Show}}</ref>
