Yeovilton Air Day

Yeovilton Air Day, one of the largest one day events in the south west, will return this summer with an action-packed day out for all the family.

Few events can rival the intensity, drama and spectacle on offer at the Royal Navy's premier air show. Last year's show won Gold at the South West Tourism Excellence Awards for 'Event of the Year', and attracted over 30,000 visitors.

At this year's show, the thrilling five hour flying display will feature military and civilian display teams from the UK and abroad, including:

  • RAF Red Arrows
  • Royal Jordanian Falcons
  • Swiss Air Force F/A18 Hornet
  • Czech Air Force Gripen 

The show will culminate with the world-renowned Commando Assault Finale.

As well as the flying display, there is plenty to see and do on the ground - so whether you're a wide-eyed first timer or a seasoned air show veteran, the experience should be incredible.
