For the full display programme each day and timings, see the official Air Festival brochure, which costs £5.

The brochure features:

  • Everything you need to know about the four-day event taking place between Bournemouth and Boscombe Piers.
  • A map of all the action, a full timetable of all the adrenaline-charged displays, information on all the participating display teams, planes and helicopters and details of all the other entertainment that is set to make the event such a success.

With so many display teams taking part, including a record three appearances by the Red Arrows, planning ahead is the only way to keep abreast of the action.
