The new theme for RIAT25 is Eyes in the Skies.

The Royal International Air Tattoo will highlight specialised aircraft used for intelligence, surveillance, maritime patrol, search and rescue, surveying and reconnaissance at next year’s show.

The new theme is a unique opportunity to allow you to get up close and personal with specialist aircraft that usually operate out of sight given the nature of their missions.

RIAT25 will take place on the 18, 19 and 20 July at RAF Fairford, also marking 40 years since the world-renowned show made its way to Gloucestershire after being established at North Weald and then taking place at Greenham Common.

RIAT 2025 will deliver an eclectic mix of aircraft on both flying and static displays.

RIAT's website says: "It is a three-day event that will overwhelm your senses.

"From the roar of jet engines ripping through the air to the cheer of the crowd line – it’s an experience like no other. 

"Experience sights and sounds that will leave your heart racing and raise the hairs on the back of your neck as aircraft and nations descend on Fairford for a festival of flight."
