A POPULAR air show will not be taking to the skies this summer amid concerns around social distancing. Eastbourne’s international airshow was due to take place between August 12 and 15 after being cancelled in 2020. However, the event - called Airbourne - has been “hopefully” rescheduled for 2022 due to the ongoing Covid pandemic, said organisers The decision to cancel the event was made taking into account the “continuing forms of social distancing measures” and “ensuring the safety of Eastbourne’s residents and visitors”. The organisers will now look at how Airbourne can become a sustainable event in the hope that it can return on 18 – 21 August 2022.
