Southport Air Show 2025: Confirmed aircraft line-up, dates and ticket details - will the Red Arrows appear?
Southport Air Show will return to the beautiful Sefton coast this summer, promising another year of ‘breathtaking seafront aerial displays’.
Thousands of visitors from Merseyside and beyond are expected to visit Southport to experience the two-day event, which features high-flying shows, historic aircraft displays, and more.
As well as the excitement in the sky, the 2025 air show will include flight simulators, interactive exhibits, family activities and a range of food and drink offerings.
Cllr Paulette Lappin, Sefton Council’s Cabinet Member for Regeneration, Skills and Employment said:“The Southport Air Show is one of the highlights of the year for aviation fans, families and visitors of all ages. I’d really encourage people to get their tickets now as demand is always sky-high.
“The Air Show draws crowds from across the UK and beyond, and it’s easy to see why, with breathtaking aerial displays and a vibrant atmosphere along our stunning coastline, it’s an unforgettable experience.
“There’s lots happening on the ground too, activities for children, interactive displays and plenty to keep everyone entertained. When the flying finishes, Southport’s town centre is just a short walk away, full of great places to eat, drink and relax.”
