11.00 - 13.15, THURSDAY 14 SEPTEMBER 2023
Join us to mark the 80th anniversary of the Dambusters Raid with a screening of Lancaster on Thursday 5 October at the Performing Arts Centre.
The screening is kindly sponsored by Lancaster Guernsey so the proceeds from all the tickets sales will go to the Guernsey Air Display Foundation.
Lancaster documents the story of the iconic WW2 bomber, told through the words of the last surviving crew members and re-mastered material and aerial footage of the RAF's last airworthy Lancaster.
Tickets are £18 and student/senior £12.
Guernsey’s annual air display has been enjoyed by thousands of people for over 60 years, hosting some of Britain’s most historic and treasured military aircraft alongside aerobatic and awe inspiring display teams.
The Guernsey Air Display plays an important role in:
-
Commemorating the lives and legacy of all those RAF aircrew who have served their country with honour and pride over the last 100+ years and ensuring the continued preservation of our historic aircraft which enriches our national heritage.
-
Celebrating the invaluable work that the RAF Association does for all former and current serving personnel who need support and assistance. The Air Display falls within Battle of Britain Week which is the main fundraising event for the Guernsey branch of the RAF Association.
-
Educating and Inspiring the next generation of pilots, engineers and aviation professionals.
The Air Display relies almost entirely on private funding, from the generous support of local businesses who form a Consortium and Corporate and individual Friends of the Guernsey Air Display, alongside a grant and underwrite from the States of Guernsey. Without this sponsorship and support, this much-loved spectacle, which is free for all islanders to enjoy, cannot take place.
