Worth bringing

  • Hearing protection Fast jets are very loud, especially for children. Ear defenders or foam plugs make the day much nicer.
  • Binoculars To follow the solos and the formations far out over the display line.
  • Camera with a zoom lens A long lens (200 mm or more) gets the jets; a fast shutter speed freezes them.

Check each show’s own rules for allowed items. Full list: what to bring to an airshow.
