On September 13, 2025, the coastal town of Lacanau (in Gironde) will host a meeting that attracts several thousand spectators every year.
Organized as part of the Lacanau Plage Airshow, the event attracts many summer visitors and year-round residents every year—between 15,000 and 25,000 people, depending on the edition. There will be aviation-themed activities on the ground, flight simulators, information stands on careers in aeronautics, autograph signings by Alpha jet pilots, various meetings with the public, and more. There will be plenty to do on the ground!
In the air, and this is the highlight of the day, there will be a performance by the Patrouille de France, with its Alpha jets reaching speeds of between 200 and 600 km/h. Between a bit of surfing, a paddleboarding lesson or two walks (on foot or by bike) around the marina, you’ll want to take a moment to look up at the sky!
Lacanau Air Show. September 13, 2025. Boulevard de la Plage, 33680 Lacanau.
