Comments (18)THE world-famous Red Arrows are scheduled to make an unprecedented three appearances during the festival.
The Royal Air Force Aerobatic Display Team draws crowds of hundreds of thousands of people wherever it goes so its displays centred over Bournemouth pier are certain to please the crowds.
The team of nine thrilled crowds on Friday, and are planning to return on Saturday (noon - 1pm) and Sunday (3pm-4pm).
The three displays are the latest in a series of visits to Bournemouth over the years.

Look forward to the traffic jams folks. Best advice to the locals is stay in your gardens and watch cos the council are only interested in tourists.Load of old rubbish if you ask me.

You wont benefit from the money coming into the town but your council tax is paying for this. I just dont understand this one bit.?????????
Oh Poolemaninscotland - get over it! Hundreds of thousands of people being attracted to the town boosting the economy and helping change its reputation as a sleepy town for old people and all you can do is moan! Furthermore it's FREE! Get yourself down to the cliff top and have a look. Fantastic display yesterday and it will only be better today, Saturday and Sunday with the Red Arrows. Worried about traffic? Take the train and walk from the station or grab a bus. It's really not that complicated.
