Can I use a stepladder in Park & View?

There are two Park & View areas, one situated at the east and one at the west end of the airfield. Both locations are signposted by yellow AA signs on the roads leading to the airfield. In the main, aircraft land and depart from the east end of the runway but this is dependent on the prevailing wind direction.

Wednesday 16 July 2025: 7.30am - 7.30pm.

Thursday 18 July 2025: 7.30am - 7.30pm.

Monday 22 July 2025: 7.30am - 6.00pm.

Aircraft arrivals and departures. Due to operational reasons beyond our control a small number of aircraft may arrive or depart prior to or after the Park & View days.

A daily flying programme is available for purchase in the enclosures areas each day. These are prepared the night before and contain the times and details of aircraft movements for that day and are as accurate as possible. However, they may be subject to change due to operations commitments, weather etc.

Yes, but you cannot walk between the two enclosure locations within the airfield as they are at either end of the runway so several miles apart by road.

Yes, at both sites.

At both sites, from 6.00am each day, parking on the airfield is included with your ticket. You are not permitted to view from within the car park if you do not have a ticket.

Cars can not be left overnight in the car parks.

Bicycles (but not motorbikes) can be locked to the fencing (inside the airfield), near to the main entrance gates at the owner's own risk.

The Park & View east enclosure has a limited disabled parking area, on a strictly first come, first served basis. Please display your blue badge at the gate, where you will be directed accordingly. There is also a designated section on hard standing for wheelchair users within the enclosure.

The Park and View west enclosure has plenty of parking close to the enclosure for disabled use. There are disabled toilet facilities in both locations. Wheelchair users should note that both enclosures are mainly grassed over areas with uneven surfaces.

Catering is available at both Park & View sites. Official souvenir programmes are available to purchase at both sites, whilst Official Air Tattoo merchandise is only available at Park and View east.

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.
