Spaceport America will be official Interplanetary Parking Provider for Oct. 10 Roswell vs WA UFO Debate, and here’s how to live-stream it

Buckle up, Earthlings and intergalactic guests – the highly anticipated showdown between Washington state’s UFO-UFO (United Festival of UFOs) and Roswell’s resident alienologists is set to beam down Friday, Oct. 10, 2025, at the Truth or Consequences Brewery.

And yes, it’s happening in a town named after an old game show – because why not?

To accommodate all cosmic visitors, Spaceport America – aka the world’s first purpose-built commercial spaceport and unofficial alien valet service – is rolling out the red carpet (or tractor beam) across all of its 18,000 acres in Sierra County. Whether you’re arriving in a flying saucer, a warp-speed cruiser, or just hitching a ride on a comet, parking validation will be at the Truth or Consequences Brewery. No need to parallel park your mothership.

The debate promises to be out of this world, diving deep into the 1947 “Summer of Saucers” saga, with hot takes on the legendary incidents occurring in Roswell, N.M., Mt. Rainier, Wash., and Maury Island, Wash. Expect conspiracy theories, questionable eyewitness accounts, and at least one person wearing a tinfoil hat unironically.

“We are thrilled Spaceport America has joined in our relentless search for the truth about 1947, by extending, into the galaxy, the universe’s singular symbol of friendship – free parking ,” said Team Washington member, and co-founder of the Men in Black Birthday Bash Festival (MIBBB Fest), Steve Edmiston.
