The Red Arrows have revealed their display schedule for 2024, with the team set to perform in Sussex later in the year.

They will begin their 2024 display schedule abroad in May, with the first performance set to take place in Greece.

Following that, they will embark on a run of UK-based displays travelling around the nations for many high-profile events.

During late August and early September, they will conduct many performances over in Canada before the end of the season finale at Duxford.

Where will the Red Arrows be performing in Sussex?

The Red Arrows will have a display at the Goodwood Festival of Speed in July this year on Thursday, July 11 and Friday, July 12.

However, unlike in 2023, the team will not be performing at the Eastbourne Airbourne due to their "overseas commitments".

A spokesman for Eastbourne Borough Council said at the end of last year: “We have been advised that the Red Arrows will not be performing at Eastbourne International Airshow due to overseas commitments from the end of July.

“While the absence of the Red Arrows at the 2024 airshow is a loss, it opens exciting opportunities to introduce fresh, never-seen-before aerial displays to Eastbourne.

“In 2019, when the Red Arrows were away for their international tour, the debut of the Breitling Jets Team in Eastbourne created an unforgettable experience for airshow enthusiasts.

“Our events team is once again engaging with multiple teams to bring thrilling new displays to Eastbourne."

What to expect from a Red Arrows display

The Red Arrows aerobatic display changes each year, according to their website, but there are three types the team leader can elect to fly – full, rolling or flat.

A display is split into two halves - the first half consists of synchronised, formation aerobatics, followed by a more dynamic second half.

Manoeuvres which featured in 2023 shows included the Vixen Break, Tornado and Reds 6 Thorugh 9 pass (examples of which can be seen on the Red Arrows website).
