A HEREFORDSHIRE airfield has said a free event is now rescheduled.

The air show at Shobdon Airfield was due to be held on Easter Monday (April 21) but "adverse" weather stopped the day from happening.

Early Spring Bank Holiday on Monday May 5 is the new date for the Aviators & Artisans event hosted by Herefordshire Aero Club.

Running from 10am until 3pm, artisan makers and retro stall holders are set to be in attendance, including paper crafts, handmade jewellery, and gift cards.

Vintage aircrafts are encouraged to fly in from far and wide for the event, a chance to celebrate the golden age of aviation. The artisan market is set to be the first for the airfield.

Classic biplanes, warbirds and other historic planes are an event highlight. Free landings for aircraft over 60 years old is also an attraction, especially when they refuel at Shobdon.

Artisan coffee, bakery goods, ceramics, vintage upcycled clothes, aviation accessories, model aircraft and collectibles will be available to purchase too.

A new date still means it will be good day out for history buffs and aviation enthusiasts.
