Festival of Flight: The Story Behind the Show

In this special episode of Ayrshire Insights with Elliot Boyce, Elliot is joined by Jamie Tait from South Ayrshire Council to talk all things International Ayr Show – Festival of Flight. The Ayr Show has become a major highlight in the local calendar, bringing spectacular aerial displays, family entertainment and visitors to Ayr's beautiful seafront. Jamie gives us an insight into the event and the work that goes on behind the scenes to help bring such an ambitious festival to life. We also explore what an event of this scale means for Ayrshire — from showcasing the area to visitors and supporting local businesses, to bringing the community together and creating memorable experiences for families. Recorded from the weekly business show on Now Ayrshire Radio, this is a special conversation about events, tourism, teamwork and putting Ayrshire on the map — with That Local Feeling.
