Southport Airshow History
The first Southport Airshow was an annual event held in Southport, Merseyside, England, since 1991. The airshow takes place in September, and attracts around 150,000 spectators making it the North West's largest Airshow.
The flying programme includes a good mixture of military and civilian aircraft, classic jets, warbirds, helicopters, aerobatics and parachute displays. The show features a whole host of trade stands, interactive and educational displays, simulators, military vehicles, assault courses, bungee trampolines, and children's activities.
Friday night will have flying displays to music with pyros and LED lights and a firework finale. Saturday and Sunday has two full days of flying with plenty of entertainment in between.
The Southport Airshow was cancelled in 2020 due to the Coronavirus (COVID-19) Pandemic and was also cancelled in 2021 because of the continued uncertainty over large scale events. The Southport Airshow went ahead in 2022 and included the Republic of Korea Air Force aerobatic display team the 'Black Eagles' in the air display.
