ABOUT THE SHOW.

The Headcorn Southern Model Show® will be back at Headcorn Aerodrome on the 30th – 31st August 2025. Early Bird tickets are available on-line until the 28th February 2025. After this date, discounted tickets will still be available on-line until the 29th August 2025.

Bring the whole family and enjoy the best RC Model show in the South East, featuring something for everybody young or old. The Southern Model Show® is a very well established, family orientated show, and is easily accessible with free and disabled parking on site.

As regular visitors will testify, the flying displays are the highlight of the show, with a constant stream of model aircraft expertly flown by incredibly skilled pilots. On Saturday evening there will be the Pyrotechnic Flying Display followed by the Fireworks.

In addition, as well as the whole range of Radio Controlled Model stands, selling everything from full size models, kits, tools and spare parts, there will be a varied range of food and drink outlets to suit every taste and budget.

Model cars and trucks will be on display with plenty of opportunity for everyone to have a go.

Camping tickets are available for the whole weekend and the facilities include the shower block, toilets and disabled toilets, clean and grey water standpipes and toilet cassette emptying facilities.

Well behaved dogs are welcome but must be kept on a lead at all times.
