Will Rogers Birthplace Ranch Built in 1875 in Cherokee Nation's Cooweescoowee district, this home tells the story of Will Rogers.

Today, we remember Will Rogers and Wiley Post, whose lives were tragically cut short in a plane crash on Aug. 15, 1935.

Join us as former Cherokee Nation Tribal Council Member and Cultural Tourism Advisor Keith Austin leads us in a moment of silence and reflects on their enduring legacies and lasting contributions to aviation and American culture.

As restoration work continues, the annual Will Rogers & Wiley Post Fly-In will remain postponed until 2027. We look forward to once again gathering here with the community to honor their memory and shared love of aviation.

Until then, join us in remembering the Cherokee Kid and Wiley Post, 91 years later.

We’ve had many people asking about the return of the Will Rogers & Wiley Post Fly-In, and we want to share that the event will remain postponed until 2027 as restoration work continues at the Will Rogers Birthplace Ranch.

Our team is making important improvements to preserve the historic site for future generations, including foundation and structural repairs, a new roof, updated electrical systems and improved water lines. All work is being completed in accordance with historical preservation guidelines to protect the legacy of Will Rogers and his family.

While an official date for the grand reopening celebration has not yet been announced, we encourage you to follow our page for updates as the project enters its final stages in the coming months.

We appreciate everyone’s patience and support during this restoration process and look forward to welcoming visitors back in 2027 for the return of the beloved Will Rogers & Wiley Post Fly-In.
