Thousands expected to attend Bray Air Display in Wicklow

Tens of thousands of people are expected to attend this year's Bray Air Display, the 19th edition of Ireland’s biggest aviation event.

It is expected to feature Team Raven, one of the biggest civilian air display teams in the world along with parachutists from the Defence Forces Black Knight team, wing walkers and historic aircraft.

There will also be a Future of Flight zone where virtual reality headsets let people experience what it is like to pilot a drone and in real life drone displays.

There are some road closures in the Co Wicklow town and organisers are asking those attending the free event to get there by walking, cycling or using public transport if possible.

There are two official carparks with free shuttle bus services to the seafront and those bringing their car are advised that parking regulations will be enforced in town where parking spaces will be limited.
