Despite some worried, the English Riviera Airshow will continue next year.

Torbay Council have given the go ahead for the Engish Riviera Airshow next year.

There had been some concern that the Airshow could be paired down to completely cancelled due to the cost.

Despite the concerns, Torbay Council has decided to continue with the event as a free show and look to expand facilities for visitors.

£100,000 has been earmarked by the council as a contribution towards the costs of the Airshow, although this is a lower amount than in recent years.
