English Riviera Air Show 

English Riviera Airshow 

The English Riviera Airshow, held in Paignton, Devon is a spectacular event that takes place at the start of June every year. The 2022 English Riviera Airshow will be taking place on the 4th and 5th June. The weekend event features breath-taking air displays over the stunning natural amphitheatre of South Devon's beautiful bay. The event attracts spectators from across the country and is usually well supported by the RAF (including the Red Arrows!) as well as top civilian displays. 

 

The English Riviera Airshow is potentially the most impressive in the UK, with the backdrop of some of Devon's best beaches and accessibility to world-class food and activities within walking distance. The Airshow attracts almost 200,000 people to The English Riviera. 

 

Events are centred around Paignton Green, with free entertainment for all the family, including exhibition stands, bars, food stalls, display teams, inflatable slides, bouncy castles and fairground rides. English Riviera Airshow visitors can also indulge in a range of retail therapy, including gifts, toys and festival essentials. Of course, it’s up in the sky where the breath-taking aerial action takes place, with a packed two-day programme of stunts, displays and flypasts. 

 

It’s always an honour to witness iconic aircraft of yesteryear and the 2022 English Riviera Airshow will welcome the greatest aviation icons of the 20th and 21st century. 

 

All air displays are subject to change depending on weather conditions and operational commitments which could take the military displays elsewhere at short notice. 

 

The event will be open from 10am to 10pm on Saturday 4th June and 10am to 6pm on 5th June. Flying is provisionally set from 2pm to 5pm each day.
