Due to the high costs of putting on the show, it was announced earlier in the year that it would be closing. However, Fawley Parish Council stepped in and invited the Fawley Show team to bring the ‘heart’ of the show to Armed Forces Day. is collaboration means that the show will be even more spectacular than usual. Visitors can expect the arrival of two helicopters, a Scout and a Sioux from Historic Army Aircra Flight, as well as a huge range of military, historic, and classic vehicles, including a visit from the mischievous ‘Herbie’. ere will also be live music from a variety of bands, including Wire JD, Plus One, Junkyard Dogs, Davey Jones Locker, and Soulcatchers. Families will nd plenty of activities to keep them entertained, including a fun fair, children’s activities, the Model Boat Club, a cra market, and a petting farm. ere will be food and drink available, or visitors can take their own picnic. e highlight of the day, weather permitting, will be a ypast by Britain’s most beloved aircra , the Supermarine Spit re. e day is a celebration of our Armed Forces, and the collaboration with Fawley Show brings it close to home as a way for veterans to pay their respects and remember the pilots laid to rest in Fawley Church. e event is free for all the family, and polite dogs are welcome to visit the new enclosed dog walking area. Visitors can nd more information and con rmed timings for the Spit re ypast at: www.fawley-pc.gov.uk.
