Event organisers are pleased to confirm that the English Riviera Airshow will return from Friday 4 June to Sunday 6 June 2027, bringing three days of spectacular aviation displays and on-the-ground entertainment back to Paignton Green.

The English Riviera Airshow is a collaborative effort supported by the English Riviera BID Company, Torbay Council, local businesses and organisations, and aviation enthusiasts.

Earlier this summer, nearly 200,000 people attended the Airshow in Paignton over the weekend, with warm, sunny weather helping to make the 10th anniversary event a resounding success. More than 100,000 visitors attended on the Saturday alone, highlighting the event’s huge popularity.

Now attention turns to 2027, with organisers encouraging businesses, organisations and residents to become part of the journey from the outset.

Community involvement continues to play an important role in the Airshow's future. Support from sponsors, exhibitors, traders and volunteers helps ensure the event can continue to grow while offering visitors an outstanding experience on the English Riviera.

Councillor Jackie Thomas, Torbay Council Cabinet Member for Tourism, Culture & Events and Corporate Services, said: ‘‘We are delighted to announce the dates for 2027 and have already started planning another spectacular event for residents and visitors to enjoy. The English Riviera Airshow is much more than a weekend of incredible flying displays. It is a celebration of our community, a showcase for the English Riviera, and an event that brings significant benefits to local businesses and our local economy. Make sure you save the dates and watch out for future announcements as plans develop.’’
