Red Arrows confirmed for seaside carnival
The Red Arrows will perform at this year's Cromer Carnival, organisers have announced. The RAF aerobatic display team will take to the skies over the Norfolk coast on Wednesday, 20 August. The Red Arrows have been a regular fixture of the carnival since 1980, but were unable to perform last year due to touring in Canada. Event organisers said the exact time of the display would be confirmed nearer the day. "Don't forget we will also be having the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight Hurricane and Spitfire Display," organisers posted on Facebook. Other displays include a motorcycle stunt team, craft fayre and parade. The annual event, held 16-22 August, attracts thousands of people to the seafront in the north Norfolk town. During the 2023 carnival, the Red Arrows cancelled their appearance just hours before they were due to perform after "unforeseen technical issues". The Red Arrows are also due to perform at both days of the Old Buckenham Airshow, near Attleborough, on 26 and 27 July and at the Clacton Airshow in Essex on 21-22 August.
