NBAA has released the schedule for the 2021 edition of BACE, to be held October 12 to 14 in Las Vegas, including the key features, as well as associated conferences and forums, that have characterized the event in past years. The annual convention will offer its traditional three days of exhibits and indoor aircraft displays at the Las Vegas Convention Center, as well as the static aircraft display at Henderson Executive Airport.

Additionally, a packed schedule of sessions will focus on new technologies, business models, and utilization plans, other trends, and safety and operational considerations. Sessions will range from panels on advanced air mobility, UAS, and sustainability to ones on security, professionalism, airport tenant relations, and SMS, among many others. Several networking sessions are planned, including a reception at the new Maintenance Pavilion. Day one and two keynotes are scheduled, as is the annual Corporate Angel Network benefit cocktail reception.

As in the past, the convention will be bookended with a Tax, Regulatory, and Risk Management Conference along with the Single-Pilot Safety Standdown on the eve of the event and a National Safety Forum on the last day. Also on the last day will be the Collegiate Connect Day as NBAA strives to build up the industry's future workforce. A two-day PDP course on aviation leadership will be held as well.
