Bournemouth Air Festival 2021

Details

This year’s Bournemouth Air Festival ~ Thursday 2nd September to Sunday 5th September 2021.

Whatever you want to see, be it on land, sea or in the air, there will be plenty to keep you entertained this year.

As well as flying displays throughout the afternoon and early evening there will be so much more to see across the whole area including a Royal Navy dive tank, unarmed combat displays, cooking demonstrations by Navy chefs, the newly located RAF village, product sampling from a multitude of traders and of course the traditional Funfair and fireworks.

We’re extremely excited to announce our GREATEST Royal Air Force line-up in five years for Bournemouth Air Festival 2021!
Coming back with gusto the RAF Red Arrows will display Thurs 2nd, Fri 3rd, Sat 4th and Sun 5th Sep as well as RAF Typhoon Display Team and the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight (Official) who will also be performing across all four days – this is the first time all three RAF display teams have been part of the festival line up since 2016!
