Flying Circus Aerodrome in Bealeton, Virginia, USA, about an hours drive from DC. They do a fun little air show every Sunday between May and October, weather permitting. I like to park at a commuter lot about 5.5 miles (9 km) away and ride over.

It's definitely a nice show. Very family/kid friendly. I think I went three or four times last year, enough to know most of the announcer's jokes. Usually there are around 50-100 people there, and they sell rides before and after the show. They also do a big hot air balloon festival in August, and that's usually packed with people. I guess, with all of that, and souvenirs and concessions, they bring in enough money to keep it going. Most of those planes are more than 80 years old, and probably need a good deal of TLC to keep flying.
