Maxims Casino Southend Airshow

Welcome to the official Maxims Casino Southend Airshow 2008 website!

Don't miss out!

The skies over the seafront at Southend will be filled with the sights and sounds of high speed jets and breathtaking display teams on the Bank Holiday weekend - Sunday 25th & Bank Holiday Monday 26th May 2008 at the 2008 Maxims Casino Southend Airshow.

In it's 23rd year, the Southend Airshow was the first seaside Airshow to be staged in the country. Now it has developed into one of the LARGEST free airshows in Europe and is an event of national standing.

There will be a full afternoon's flying programme on both days. The details are still to be finalised, but you can expect to see firm favourites again this year, such as RAF's premier display team, the Red Arrows and the dare-devil wingwalkers from Team Guinot.

On the Ground

The Airshow site, stretching for over a mile, will be packed with a whole host of activity for everyone to enjoy throughout the day. There will be flight simulators, giant inflatables, a market area, arena with unarmed combat displays from the Royal Marines, Essex FM Roadshows, a Meet the Pilots area, the RAF and Army Town Shows, plus lots more - plenty to keep the whole family entertained all day!

Programme - £3
