Welcome to the Dawlish Air Show Website

Dawlish is situated on the South East coast of Devon 10 miles (half way) between Exeter and Torquay. The town has good transport links whether by air, rail or road.

The M5 connects Devon with the rest of the country starting at Birmingham, meeting the M4 at Bristol for routes from London and Wales and then carries on to Exeter. Leave the motorway at junction 30 and follow the signs for Dawlish along A379 (10 miles)

Parking will still be available on Warren Road and is well sign-posted; the facility has lots of room. With thanks to Richard Weeks - who donates all of the revenues arising to the show - the facility also has access to the coast path with a perfect viewpoint of the airshow display line.

If you are visiting or know people visiting from outside the town the easiest way for them into Dawlish is by public transport. One of our sponsors, First Great Western, provides regular services in and out of the town until 11.30pm.

Exeter International Airport is situated just 12 miles North of the resort has regular flight from most UK airports as well as Western Europe. The main operator is Flybe. You can get more information on Exeter International here.
