The iconic Red Arrows display team teamed up with Portuguese F-16s to mark the 650th anniversary of the British-Portuguese Alliance with a flypast.

This flypast event follows the commemorative ceremonies last week in London, attended by King Charles III and Portugal's President Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa.

They will perform more than 60 displays at locations in the UK and overseas. Here is where you can see the 2023 displays.
