NEWS: ✈️ Red Arrows set to miss Blackpool Air Show 2026 🇬🇧

The Red Arrows won’t be appearing at this year’s Blackpool Air Show.

Due to a tour of the United States from 27 June to 26 July, they are unable to perform in Blackpool.

The team is set to return to the UK air show circuit following the US tour in Eastbourne on August 15th.

Will Myles, Head of Visit Blackpool, said: “Unfortunately the RAF Red Arrows will not perform at the 2026 Blackpool Air Show due to other commitments.

“We know how much residents and visitors look forward to seeing the team over our seafront. We fully respect the important role they play in representing the UK at home and around the world, and we look forward to welcoming them back in future years. The Royal Air Force are still supporting Blackpool with their Typhoon and Battle of Britain Memorial Flight displays teams.”

“The Blackpool Air Show remains one of the most iconic free events in the UK. In the coming weeks, we will reveal the full programme of high‑impact displays, crowd favourites and exciting new additions that will ensure the event continues to deliver the world‑class experience our visitors expect.”

So far, there’s no word on whether a stand‑in display team like the Breitling Jet Team which performed at the show in 2019 will be brought in with as a replacement with an announcement “due closer to the time”

Good morning all another small change going forward
Availability on booking..com will be 12 weeks at a time so October will be available on 1st August
If you want to book any dates in advance I am still open its just I'm giving returning customers first choice on dates . The main reasons for this are direct bookings hardly ever cancel and I hate turning customers away when fully booked only for room to be cancelled and sit empty
Thank you once again for all your continued support best regards Steve

Thank you once again for your support
