Exact time you’ll be able to see the Red Arrows over Nottinghamshire on Sunday - timings and full route

Nottinghamshire aviation enthusiasts are in for a treat this weekend as the famous Red Arrows soar over the county. 

The iconic red jets are intertwined with summertime culture here in the UK and perform at dozens of events each year. 

Based at RAF Waddington in Lincolnshire, the Red Arrows had flown almost 5,000 displays in 57 countries by the beginning of 2024 – the team's 60th season.

The team’s jaw-dropping summer displays across the country attract hundreds of thousands of aviation enthusiasts. 

Although the Arrows won’t be performing at any shows here in Nottinghamshire this summer, that doesn’t mean residents will miss out on seeing them. 

The county’s close proximity to the team’s Lincolnshire base means that the famous red jets regularly pass over Nottinghamshire while transiting to and from events, as is the case this Sunday (June 23). 

Where and when can I see the Red Arrows over Nottinghamshire? 

On Sunday the display team will be performing at the Sywell Airshow in Northamptonshire. 

Following the 5.30pm display, the Hawk T1A aircraft will head back to Lincolnshire via the East Midlands. 

At 6.08pm the Arrows will be visible over Loughborough, before heading east towards Nottinghamshire. 

Southern parts of the county will have the best view of the jets between 6.08pm and 6.12pm. 

Residents in villages including Keyworth and Cotgrave are likely to see the aircraft pass over.
