Airshow reopens to public next year

Saturday, 4 December 2021 - News

Farnborough International Airshow is going back to its roots and allow public access to its exhibition halls to promote and inspire the next generation of pilots, engineers and innovators.

And taking place on each afternoon of the show, a flying display above the airfield will showcase the most advanced aircraft in both commercial and military design.

The well-structured display is enhanced with an illustrative commentary broadcast across the exhibition site.

And the static displays in the exhibition halls and on the airfield will give visitors the opportunity to view the aircraft up close, with the natural amphitheatre of the Farnborough Aerodrome allowing aircraft to be displayed to maximum effect.

This visitor comeback comes after show organisers announced in March 2019 there would be no public days from 2020 onwards.

The entire public weekend section was replaced with just ‘visitor’ Fridays.

But although it will remain at five days, the airshow, one of the biggest in the world, will be open to the public again next year. Industry pioneers such as BAE Systems, Boeing, Rolls-Royce and Raytheon Technologies have already taken space at the show.

And the green agenda will be high on the show timetable, with ‘Jet Zero’ carbon emission-free flying the ultimate goal.

As part of the transformation, the 2022 airshow will be unveiling a new revolutionary global initiative – the inaugural Aerospace Global Forum.

This platform will provide global leaders with the opportunity to gather, discuss and interrogate major issues impacting the world through an aerospace lens and drive positive change.

Aviation minister Robert Coutts said: “We know how challenging the past 18 months have been for the aviation sector and the return of this world-renowned airshow marks a significant moment for the industry.

“As well as being a huge boost for the economy, the show highlights the leading role the UK plays in ushering in a new era of Jet Zero aviation, developing innovative new technologies and creating green jobs.”

Farnborough International chief executive Gareth Roberts said: “Farnborough International Airshow remains the leader in connecting the world of aerospace and the 2022 instalment will be our most important yet.

“It has never been more vital to connect the leading pioneers and our event will enable the industry to harness the power of the sector to tackle the largest questions and develop tangible outcomes following global summits, such as COP26.

“Almost 90 per cent of exhibition spaces are sold and reserved already.

“More than two-thirds of exhibitors are from outside the UK and we are thrilled to see the eagerness of the industry to return to face-to-face events and work together to initiate global change.”

The inaugural Farnborough Airshow took place on the first week of September in 1948.

It was held every other year, alternating with the Paris Air Show.

Since 1948, many famous planes, including the Vickers VC10, Concorde, the Eurofighter, the Airbus A380 and the Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II have debuted at the show.

And at the 1958 show, the RAF’s Black Arrows executed a 22-plane formation loop, setting a world record.

The Farnborough International Airshow will run from July 18 to July 22, 2022.


Details on the Aerospace Global Forum, programme and ticket details will be shared in early 2022.
