THE RED Arrows may be seen flying over Worcestershire ahead of a popular festival.
The Midlands Air Festival begins tomorrow (Friday, June 2) through to Sunday, June 4 at the Ragley Hall Estate.
Last year, they flew over Malvern, Evesham, Bromsgrove, Stourport and near Worcester.
The Red Arrows will also fly a formation flypast on Sunday.
However, a flight map has yet to be released to show the direction they will be flying to reach Ragley Hall in Warwickshire.

On Friday and Saturday, there will also be two full displays from the Royal Air Force’s Aerobatic team, the Red Arrows, and the RAF frontline jet fighter, Typhoon, performing their first displays of the season.
The Swedish Draken jet fighter will be making an appearance at the Midlands Air Festival over the Ragely Hall estate, alongside another rare British jet fighter the de-Havilland Vampire on Sunday, June 4.
The jet is a uniquely shaped, swept wing double delta aircraft that has been compared to a UFO, with its sleek shape.
It is capable of a supersonic speed of 1200 miles an hour and can climb to 40,000ft in one minute.

WW2 warbirds will also be heavily featured, with the RAF Lancaster, the American B17 Flying Fortress ‘Sally B’ heavy four-engine bombers, Spitfires, Hurricane, Mustang and the mighty Grumman Bearcat fighter flying its big sky display.
Across the three days of the festival, visitors can also see over 200 hot air balloons and airships, both tethered and flying.
There will be 30 other ‘special shape’ balloons including The Piper, Slick the Dragon, Buster the Dog, Dolly the Sheep, and Busby the Queen’s Guardsman, all making this the largest gathering of hot air balloons in the UK.
There will also be an alien standing over 100ft tall overlooking the event.
