Battle of Britain Jersey International Air Display


As the biggest of the Channel Islands, Jersey takes advantage of its air space by giving its people a magnificent and free Air Display to commemorate the cloudy days of the Battle of Britain in September 1940.

Normally taking place on or around September 11th, the exciting show happens at St. Aubin's Bay on the South Coast of the Island. This location provides spectators an array of different vantage points.

Over the years, the Jersey International Air Display has become increasingly popular with a wide variety of aircraft on show from many different countries. Aircraft from Belgium, Ireland, France, Netherlands, Russia, United Kingdom and the United States have all been featured in the annual event.

As a major part of Jersey's Battle of Britain Week, the aim of the Display is to help raise funds for Forces Charities in the UK. The show is made possible by a host of different sponsors such as Jersey.com, Jersey Airport, Port of Jersey and many more.

Before and after the show, visitors can see static displays of aircraft in different locations around Jersey. See the Jersey Air Display official website for any updates or changes to the timetable.
