All eyes will turn to the sky as the Royal Air Force Aerobatic Team returns to the 2025 Festival of Speed presented by Mastercard this summer on Thursday, Friday and Sunday. 

Making more than 60 public performances across the 2025 season, the Red Arrows will once again captivate spectators with a stunning series of aerial displays led by Squadron Leader Jon Bond over the Festival of Speed. 

Returning to the Festival of Speed, the Red Arrows will give visitors the chance to see some of the most skilful and experienced pilots soar over Goodwood House in nine magnificent Hawk T1s, delivering a world-class display. 

Renowned for their bright red, white and blue colours that fill the skies, the 22-minute show will include a variety of crowd-favourite formations alongside new additions, such as an eye-catching formation split for an innovative and dynamic performance. 

The Red Arrows display joins the biggest celebration of Formula 1 to date, Gordon Murray Automtovie’s spectacular Central Feature and four-time WorldSBK Champion Carl Fogarty

The Festival of Speed timetable will be announced in the coming months.
