For the love of flight.

Dates with a source

Our calendar covers selected 2026 events, including past dates, and published 2027 dates. Each listing links to an official organiser, council or RAF source and records when it was checked. This is a growing calendar, not a complete UK schedule.

Event confirmation is separate from aircraft participation. Aircraft records describe published programmes, not proof that a display took place. Empty line-ups mean we have not recorded confirmations. A Spitfire entry groups the aircraft type; operator and variant details appear with each programme record.

Each event and aircraft record shows its own source check date. Updates are reviewed manually. Dates, ticket availability and flying can change. Calendar downloads are snapshots and will not update automatically. Check the organiser before travelling.

Map pins show approximate venues, not entrance gates. Local weather links lead to the Met Office; we do not display a live forecast.

Aircraft images are representative, not evidence of an aircraft’s attendance, and may show a different airframe or operator from a programme. They are resized and displayed with crops and overlays. Aircraft found in organiser programmes get a photo automatically when the programme name identifies exactly one aircraft type on Wikidata; that photo comes from Wikimedia Commons and is credited on its aircraft page.
