Duxford Festival 2021
Looks like the Duxford Festival will be on 24/25 July next year. I wonder what the format will be.

Do you have a link or source of where you've seen this?

It was on the General Aviation forum on the Flyer Forums. The thread was entitled "End of an era". It also gives a list of the "Flying Days" which I think are the "Showcase" days re-branded and there are a lot more of them. Only two big airshows though, the other one being the B of B show in September.

So no May airshow, they've simply moved it to mid summer. That's a shame, they've displaced Legends not for an extra show, just to move one.

Re: Duxford Festival 2021
Probably due to uncertainty over COVID restrictions in the early part of the season. (Just like Old Warden have only committed to Drive-In events in the early part of the season.) Not sure IWM will want to repeat the experience of losing a 'major' event again at short notice.
