World-famous RAF team, The Red Arrows, are again set to thrill crowds at Swansea Airshow this summer. They’re the first big name to be confirmed for the two-day spectacular due to take place over the skies of Swansea Bay on July 1 and 2. The annual show, official name Wales Airshow, is being organised by Swansea Council.
The Red Arrows are due to visit on both days when there’ll also be many other stars of the skies and a wide range of family fun on the ground, including displays, virtual reality experiences and live music. The Red Arrows team is made up of pilots, engineers and essential support staff with frontline, operational experience.
Their trademark Diamond Nine shape and combination of close formations and precision flying have made them a massive hit at the event since its inception. Based in Waddington, the Red Arrows had flown almost 5,000 displays by the beginning of 2021, the team's 57th season. Get Swansea stories straight to your inbox with our newsletter.
