I believe it is the 11-13th July.
I have been on the Saturday for the last couple of years, didn't think there was much difference between the two days to be honest.
Definitely up for a convoy having missed the Japfest one.

The ever-popular Red Arrows aerobatic display team will return to the Festival once again. However, due to other commitments, they will only display on Friday.

I see from the brochure that they've also built some more banking for spectators to view as they start up the hill after passing in front of the house. Always a good vantage point that should now be better!
