We are so glad to be back at airshows and meeting aviation fans again. Bournemouth Air Festival was the fourth show we’ve attended this year and it was great to see so many people out and about. 

There was a wonderful atmosphere at the festival, helped by the Red Arrows wowing the crowds in their own inimitable style. The beautiful sunshine also helped! 

Our next event will be Goodwood Revival from 17 to 19 September, which promises to be as glamorous a weekend as usual. 

We are also looking forward to seeing people at Duxford Battle of Britain Air Show on Saturday 18 and Sunday 19 September. 

Chris Osborne, Events Retail Manager, said:

“Going into this year’s air show season was a bit of a leap into the unknown. Would any be on? Would anyone come? This made planning somewhat trickier than usual. We are so pleased that not only have show’s been running, but that people have been happy to attend. I think they feel a little safer, as the events are outdoors. Having the Red Arrows displaying at an airshow helps too.” 

“We are planning for a full calendar next year and will release details of which RAF airshows and other events we will be attending just as soon as we can.” 

When thinking about what merchandise to take along to an event, Chris will try and take something for everyone, both from a product and budget point of view. There will be items that can be bought with pocket money, some at the more expensive end of the spectrum and everything in between. There are models and toys, clothes and accessories (children’s Red Arrows flying suits are a particular favourite), homewares, stationery and items from many of the RAF’s display teams. You can find all those and more by clicking the links below:
