12 July 2008
This weekend’s Royal International Air Tattoo at Fairford in Gloucestershire has been cancelled due to waterlogging. It is the first time in the event’s 38-year history that this has happened.
The move follows the heavy rain which the county has experienced in the past 72 hours, which has meant that both the car parks and the Sunday’s leg of the two-day event could take place. However, the decision was taken on Saturday that the Sunday would also be cancelled.
Details of ticket refunds are on the RIAT website.
