The countdown is officially on to the return of one of Swansea's favourite events, the Wales Airshow. Swansea Bay will be transformed as the aerial spectacular takes over the skies. As well as the action in the sky, there will be ground displays, food and drink trucks, live music, demonstrations, family activities, rides and more. Tens of thousands of visitors are expected to arrive in the city to enjoy the two-day event.
The Wales Airshow has grown in popularity from 75,000 visitors in its launch year in 2009 to an audience of about 250,000. The event, organised by Swansea Council, last took place in 2019 before the pandemic caused cancellation. Get Swansea stories straight to your inbox with our newsletter.
