RIAT details as sales surge after move from RAF Fairford announced

The 2027 event is now due to be held at MOD Boscombe Down in Wiltshire from July 16 to 18 and general admission tickets are currently available.

Details of various upgrades and packages have been revealed, with prices ranging from £27.50 per person for a family enclosure to £750 per person for the show's most luxurious hospitality offering.

However, they are not yet on sale as final arrangements at the new location have not yet been made, so visitors should register their interest online for updates.

A RIAT spokesperson said: “Ticket sales for RIAT27 have been progressing well, with sales currently tracking ahead of the same point last year.

“We are particularly pleased to have sold a further 1,000 tickets in the 24 hours following yesterday's announcement, demonstrating the continued interest and support for the event.

“For anyone wishing to request a refund, information can be found in the FAQs on our website (airtattoo.com).”

These are the current booking options listed on the website for the world’s biggest military airshow, and are subject to change.
