The 2025 Middelburg Airshow will be taking place this weekend.

The airshow, on Saturday aims to please all spectators by providing a large variety of displays, which will include a Bell 222 Helicopter, like the one used in Airwolf, skydiving, extreme aerobatics, formation aerobatics, helicopters, radio-controlled aircraft displays and much, much more!

All done by world-class display pilots.

Helicopter flips will also be available during the day for those that want to experience the views from the air. Come for a flip in Airwolf!

Look forward to a large array of food vendors.

The Round Table Beer Garden will serve adults, with the proceeds pledged to local charities.

Veteran airshow commentator Brian Emmenis makes a welcome return to the Aero Club Air Week Airshow.

Brian has been South Africa’s voice of aviation for the past 40 years. He brings a wealth of knowledge and flair to the show. “My task is to take the thousands of spectators, strap them in and let them enjoy the flight through my commentary,” said  Brian.

He brings a crew of highly-trained producers, audio engineers and researchers.

The Middelburg Aero Club invites the people of eMalahleni and  its surrounding towns, to bring their friends and their whole family, and enjoy the heart-stopping action.

Just bring along the camping chairs and enjoy the food and drinks provided by the vendors.
