The Red Arrows will perform over Folkestone this weekend
The world famous Red Arrows will perform their iconic display in the skies over Kent this weekend.
The Royal Air Force Aerobatic Team, will fly over Folkestone on Sunday, August 8.
The best views of the display, organised by Folkestone and Hythe District Council with support from the Town Council, will be from the area around The Leas in the town.
The team - flying distinctive hawk-fast jets - are scheduled to perform at 4pm, with displays starting with the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight at 1pm and the Stampe Formation Team at 3pm.
Folkestone Festival is also organising food and arts and crafts stalls, live music and a classic car show.
Spectators are being encouraged to use public transport, but for those who have to travel by car, two temporary car parks will be available at Radnor Park and Folkestone School for Girls, with a £5, cash-only charge for the whole day.
The Leas and Harbour areas are expected to see an increase in traffic and stewards will be working throughout the day. Several roads will also be closed. To find out more details click here.
The team have performed in Folkestone, and across Kent, on many occasions. The last time they put on a display over the town was in 2019, when thousands watched the air show, organised as part of Armed Forces Day.
