RIAT 2023
RIAT 2023
14th - 16th July 2023
The Royal International Air Tattoo (RIAT) is the world's largest military air show, held annually in July at RAF Fairford in Gloucestershire, England in support of The Royal Air Force Charitable Trust. The show typically attracts a total of 150,000 to 200,000 spectators over the weekend.
The theme for RIAT 2023 is SKYTANKER23, focusing on aircraft capable of performing air-to-air refuelling as 2023 is the 100th anniversary of the first air-to-air refuel.
Adverse weather conditions (strong winds and heavy rain) caused a number of cancellations over the three days this year but still... the event was well attended and still provided exhilarating flying displays over the duration.
