The Southport Air Show returns this weekend with a jam-packed line up of flying displays to impress aviation fans, and plenty of family-friendly activities throughout the weekend.
The world-famous Red Arrows will once again perform incredible stunts over the Sefton coast, including a new eight-jet formation - a step up from the 2022 display season, which had a seven-plane formation.

Fans turned out in their thousands last year as an RAF Typhoon, a Supermarine Spitfire and South Korea’s Black Eagles flew over the town - which is also known for its flower show.
