The Wales Airshow returns to Swansea Bay on 25–26 July 2026, bringing two action-packed days of aerial displays and seaside entertainment. Set against the sweeping backdrop of the bay, this much-loved summer event draws huge crowds eager to watch spectacular aircraft take to the skies.
Spectacular Flying Displays:
At the heart of the weekend is an impressive flying programme featuring everything from fast jets and military aircraft to historic planes and skilled aerobatic teams. Expect dramatic fly-pasts, tight formation routines and precision stunts that keep eyes fixed firmly on the horizon. The full 2026 line-up will be announced closer to the event, but visitors can look forward to a varied and exciting showcase.
Entertainment on the Promenade:
There’s just as much happening on the ground as there is in the air. Along Swansea’s bustling promenade you’ll find interactive displays, static exhibits, family activities and live entertainment throughout the day. A wide range of food and drink stalls will also be on hand, offering everything from classic seaside favourites to international street food.
For those wanting a little extra comfort, the popular Flight Deck area provides reserved seating, excellent views of the displays, and dedicated catering facilities — ideal for enjoying the show in a more relaxed setting.
Free to attend and packed with atmosphere, the Wales Airshow continues to be one of the highlights of the Welsh summer calendar — combining high-energy aviation thrills with a vibrant coastal festival feel.
