A unique event is set to take place in the skies above London this summer as the London Red Bull air race sees some of the world's best pilots race each other at speeds of up to 250mph.

In 2007 for the first time ever in London's history, an air race of spectacular speed and agility was watched by thousands of people, and this year the air race is set to stun crowds and wow spectators along the Thames and in the surrounding areas as the air race pilots navigate a challenging course and face forces of up to 10G once again.



Weaving in and out of 20 metre pylons that make up the course, fourteen skilled and daring pilots will compete in this amazing London air race as they swoop by the skyscrapers of Canary Wharf and the Thames Barrier. And given that the race can only be properly seen from specially designated areas, it is no surprise that London Red Bull air race tickets are in hot demand.

The race is likely to cause more than a stir amongst Londoners over the August weekend as the planes fly over some of the cities most famous landmarks. Similar Red Bull air race events have taken place around the world in Abu Dhabi, Rio de Janeiro and Budapest, and now London once more joins the list of air race locations. Destined to be the sporting event of the season, if not the year, the London Red Bull air race is yet another amazing addition to the calendar of events in the capital.

And for those concerned about their air miles and the city's carbon footprint, you needn't worry. The London Red Bull air race is a totally carbon neutral event. So, if you would like to book tickets for this spectacular London air race, click back soon for more information.

Ticketed viewing points are to the north and south of the river.
