Bellevue's hometown summer festival, named for the city's journey from frontier trading post to Offutt Air Force Base.
Three days in mid-August, parade on Saturday · Mission Avenue and Washington Park, Bellevue
Arrows to Aerospace is Bellevue's annual community celebration, organized by the Kiwanis Club of Bellevue-Offutt. The name nods to the city's history, from one of Nebraska's earliest settlements to home of Offutt Air Force Base. The 2025 edition was the 54th.
The centerpiece is the Saturday morning parade down Mission Avenue, with more than 80 entries in 2025, ending at Washington Park, where family events fill the rest of the weekend.
