Swansea Airshow is the largest free event in Wales. Each year, over two days, spectators can gather at Swansea Bay to see aerobatic displays, modern military aircraft, vintage planes, ground displays, and entertainment. 

The ground displays are open from 10am to 6pm on both days of the event, and you can check out flight simulators, fairs, static replica aircraft, armed forces vehicles and displays, plus plenty of delicious food. If you’re looking for a bite to eat, just head along Oystermouth Road, the Cenotaph and also around the Civic Centre. 

There will also be army fitness challenges, RAF police dog demonstrations, a mobile climbing tower run by the air Air Cadets, and two stages providing live music and entertainment throughout the day.

Swansea Castle lies right in the heart of the town centre. It was built in 1106 and was designated a Grade I listed building in 1952. The castle was partially destroyed in 1116, and then spent 10 weeks under siege in 1192, before being rebuilt some time during the 1200s. Today, the only visible remains date back to the late 13th or early 14th century. 

Plantasia brings the rainforest to Wales, with a tropical experience that is perfect for a family day out. Here, you can explore the greenery and see animals like parrots, fish, meerkats, crocodiles, pythons, scorpions, tarantula, and piranhas. There are over 40 species of animals here, and Plantasia helps to breed vulnerable and endangered species. 

Aberavon Beach lies near Port Talbot and offers 3 miles of sandy beach for you to enjoy. You can swim, kayak, surf, jet ski, boat, windsurf and kitesurf here.
