The Red Arrows are set to headline this year’s Eastbourne International Airshow, as organisers unveil plans for another spectacular four-day event on the Sussex coast.
Airbourne will return from the 13th to the 16th of August, with the world-famous RAF display team scheduled to perform three times across the weekend. They will be joined by a strong military line-up, including the RAF Typhoon and the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight.
Recognised as one of Europe’s biggest free seafront airshows, the event attracts hundreds of thousands of visitors each year. Crowds line Eastbourne’s two-mile seafront display area to watch a packed programme of aerial performances.
This year’s show promises a mix of high-speed jet displays, historic warbirds and precision aerobatic teams, showcasing the very best of aviation. Alongside the flying, visitors can enjoy a wide range of attractions on the ground, including military exhibitions, children’s entertainment, tribute acts and evening fireworks.
Organisers say the event continues to be a major highlight of the summer calendar, bringing together families, aviation enthusiasts and visitors from across the UK and beyond.
Airbourne was voted Best Free UK Airshow in 2025, underlining its reputation as one of the country’s leading outdoor events.
With another strong line-up confirmed, organisers are expecting large crowds once again, as Eastbourne prepares to welcome visitors for four days of action in the skies and along the seafront.
