Flightfest is expected to be one of the largest National events of ‘The Gathering Ireland 2013’ and is expected that thousands of people from Dublin, all over Ireland and abroad, will line the banks of the River Liffey from Dublin Port up to the Customs House.
Large commercial aircraft from Ireland and abroad will fly past, including the Boeing 737 and 767, ATR 72, Embraer 195, Airbus A320, A321, A330, A340 and A380 Superjumbo aircraft. The Irish Air Corps and the Royal Air Force will also participate and spectators will enjoy a variety of helicopters and historic aircraft, including the B-17 Flying Fortress and Vulcan B2
Roads are closing early to allow for the installation of toilettes, food concession etc. Everything should be ready by 10.30 with the event kicking off at 12.
Thousands of people are going to be in the city for this so take our advice and use the Luas, dart and bus and get there early.
