Enjoy Wales Airshow this weekend!
The famous Wales Airshow is taking place this weekend, and it’s an absolute must-see if you’ve decided to stick around in Swansea!
This year’s free event, which will take place on 2nd and 3rd July, is set to be one to remember after a long two-year break. It will include ground displays, static aircrafts, exhibitions, music, rides and of course an spectacular airborne show.
The site along Swansea Bay will be open between from 10am until 6.30pm on both days so you can enjoy a weekend full of fun.
To download the official Wales Airshow app and to find out what to expect, head over to Wales Airshow webpages.
There are several planned road closures to ensure the event can operate smoothly and safety. You can find out more about those here.
