Farnborough Airshow 2026 reveals first flying-display wave: F-35A, Airbus A350-1000 and Boeing 747 among early line-up

Farnborough International Airshow organisers have unveiled an initial wave for the 20-24 July 2026 event, teeing up what they call the largest and most diverse flying programme in decades. The first set spans 163 aircraft/teams, with highlights including a Lockheed Martin F-35A, Airbus A350-1000 and Boeing 747.

Briefing

What Hype is tracking

  • The early flying-programme “wave” signals how Farnborough will balance commercial OEM marquee aircraft with major defense display priorities for 2026 bidding and marketing cycles.
  • The inclusion of platforms spanning fighters and widebodies (e.g., F-35A and A350-1000) indicates exhibitors’ appetite for high-visibility demonstrations on a tighter show runway—just weeks ahead of the event.
  • It also comes after Farnborough’s recent precedent for disruption-driven changes, including the 2020 cancellation amid COVID-19 spread.
