Airport Events
Unique community interactions, community planned events and just being visibly active within the community let people know that you are more than just a building and a runway. Cape Cod Gateway Airport is more than just a place for travel; we are part of the Cape Cod Community.
Over the years, the Airport has opened its doors for various community with events such as: Cape Cod Young Professional’s Back to Business Bash, Southeastern Massachusetts Aviation Career Fair, Duffy Health Center Gala and Electric Car Show to name a few. Additionally, in 2021, the Airport embarked on a new campaign with focus on near monthly community-based events held at the airport.
