The famous Red Arrows have confirmed they will be returning to south Wales in 2024.

The Red Arrows made several appearances across Wales in 2023 including a display at the Wales Airshow in Swansea and a flypast over the Wales' National Armed Forces Day event in Newport.

They have now revealed their 2024 display schedule which includes just one appearance in Wales.

Where to see the Red Arrows in South Wales in 2024

The Red Arrows have confirmed they will once again perform at the Wales Airshow in Swansea in 2024. 

This year's event runs from July 6 to 7, with the Red Arrows set to put on a display for crowds on July 6.

This will be the only Red Arrows display in Wales in 2024, according to the recently released schedule.

The Red Arrows usually also make an appearance at the Rhyl Airshow which takes place in August.

But the 2024 instalment of the Rhyl Airshow was cancelled after it was revealed the Red Arrows were unable to attend due to other commitments as part of their 60th season anniversary international tour.

The Red Arrows are set to be in Canada in August around the time the award winning North Wales airshow would usually take place.
