Garden Marlborough still in the pipeline for November
Event organisers in the top of the south are forging ahead with plans despite uncertainty due to coronavirus.
Garden Marlborough chairman Tim Crawford says planning for the November event is moving “full steam ahead”, but the final call would be made at the end of May.
Crawford said they were planning for the coronavirus restrictions to be "close enough to normal" by November to carry on with the event.
Preparations for the 2021 Classic Fighters Airshow at Omaka Aerodrome have been underway for a year, and while organiser Graham Orphan is putting contingency plans in place, organisers were assuming it would go ahead.
