Eyes to the skies - the Red Arrows are coming!

Figure image
A flypast from the world-famous Red Arrows is one of the highlights of the build-up to the opening day of the new season at Welford Road this Sunday.

Tigers open the Aviva Premiership campaign with a home game against Worcester Warriors at 2pm, and we've got great free entertainment and attractions at Tigers In The Park from 10am.

And at 1.25pm, just 35 minutes before the first ball is kicked in the new season, the Red Arrows will be making an appearance.

The RAF Aerobatic Team are scheduled for a flypast, running diagonally across the stadium and the Tigers In The Park activities from the South-West to the North-East.

Tigers in the Park is based in Nelson Mandela Park opposite the stadium, with lots of attractions and activities including an Ultm8 Warrior obstacle course challenge, live music from Chris Armson, Funk Soul Brother and The Atlantics, plus a fun zone with jungle agility run and bungee run inflatable, rugby skills and circus workshop. And you could win VIP tickets to The O2 with StubHub, the Tigers official marketplace, by taking on the Speed Pass Challenge.
