There are plenty of hard standing walkways along the showground where the static aircraft are parked however there is also a grassed area from the hard standing to the crowdline, which can be uneven in places and not always practical for wheelchairs and mobility scooters.

There is a restricted mobility viewing area on the crowdline, which can be booked by completing the Accessibility request form. 

We are sorry but dogs are not permitted on the showground.  Unfortunately, due to the nature of our venue, we have very strict rules about allowing no dogs into the event, for animal welfare reasons. This is due to the prolonged high noise levels and the potential extremes of temperature which can be reached at the venue; the showground itself is on a working airfield and there is limited shade available, and the ground surface temperature can be relatively high.

We try to make whatever reasonable adjustments we can to make our event as accessible as possible. We do offer a free of charge carer ticket that you can book to enable you to bring someone with you to help on the day.

To book a free of charge carer general admission ticket please complete our accessibility request form.

Electric scooters and manual wheelchairs must be booked in advance.  To reserve an electric mobility scooter or manual wheelchair please book online at eventmobility.org.uk/royal-international-air-tattoo

Bookings cannot be taken during the event.  If there is spare equipment available at the event it is offered on a first come, first served basis only.

The pick-up/drop-off points will be close to the customer entry points in the Red Car Park and Yellow Customer Entry Point for those coming by bus/coach.

If you hire an electric scooter or wheelchair from Event Mobility this entitles you to a RIAT Accessible Parking Permit for our designated car park - please complete our Accessibility Request Form.  When completing the form please quote your Event Mobility booking reference.

You are welcome to bring your own electric scooter with you to RIAT, but please ensure that the battery is fully charged on arrival as there are no charging facilities available at the show.
