English Riviera Airshow organisers are thrilled to announce the dates for the 2025 event.
The skies over the Bays natural amphitheatre will again come alive with some of the world’s best aviation display teams from Friday 30 May to Sunday 1 June 2025.
Following the resounding success of this summer’s event, next year’s Airshow aims to be even more spectacular.
The 2024 event ignited community spirits as vital sponsors, generous local businesses and thoughtful individuals rallied behind Torbay Council and event partner the English Riviera BID Company to bring you ‘Your English Riviera Airshow’.
The collective efforts delivered a superb spectacle, ensuring that the English Riviera Airshow remains an annual event the region can be proud of. Notable highlights from 2024 included an improved ground-based attraction that enhanced the overall experience for attendees, evening live music which extended and diversified the event, an opening night ‘Take Off’ event to kick-off the weekend in style and the return of the RAF Typhoon display team.
With the date for the 2025 event confirmed, the challenge starts again to seek community support for the free to attend event. The English Riviera Airshow team is already hard at work, with opportunities now available for businesses and residents to be part of the crew.
The English Riviera Airshow is committed to its community-centred approach. Organisers openly invite local businesses, organisations, and individuals to participate. Your support whether financial, in-kind services, or volunteer time will directly impact the event’s resources and help us achieve our goal of delivering an event our community can be proud of.
