The Black Cats participation is in doubt. However, there will be displays from Rich Goodwin, Aerosuperbatics Wingwalkers and the Rolls Royce Heritage Flight Spitfire PRXIX.

Held at the end of the summer holidays, the Bournemouth Air Festival returned for the 15th time in 2023. Despite poor weather on the first day curtailing much of the flying, the Air Festival drew massive crowds to the Dorset resort across four days. Flying wise, the Air Festival boasted a line-up full of airshow favourites with some new acts joining some familiar names. A full image gallery and review can be found HERE.
