SPECTATORS will be treated to a double World War Two Spitfire flypast this weekend.

The World War Double Spitfire Flypast (the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight) is due to take place at Woofest at the Drum and Monkey near Upton upon Severn.

The World War Two Double Spitfire flypast will be at 1.13pm tomorrow (Saturday) at the event which is raising money for St Richard's Hospice in Worcester. 

The iconic Supermarine Spitfire was critical in defeating Luftwaffe air attacks during the Battle of Britain in 1940.

Last year a Hurricane flew over the festival, entertaining crowds after the event returned to the field for the first time since the Covid-19 pandemic.

This year's family event is due to take place on Friday, July 7 and Saturday, July 8.

The music starts at 6.30pm tonight, featuring Nick Parker, Junction 7, Tazmin, Ruben Seabright Trip and DMDB.

The Saturday lineup includes Kevin Davy White, Val Sinclair with Mood Indigo, Loose Lips, Tasha Leaper as Madonna, Immy and the Boatman and Friends, Erica Jeab, The Marrs Bar House Band, Echo Gecco, Split Second, Terry Walls, Woo Town, The Oddbox Band, All Killer, Eleonore and special Ibiza Classics.

Woo Fest is raising money for St Richard's Hospice in Worcester - with all money from tickets, camping and all profits from the food, raffle and games to go directly to the charity.

Woo Fest music festival is an award-winning multi-genre music festival for all ages. Since its launch in 2015, it has raised over £110,000 with every single penny from every ticket going to the hospice.

In 2020 and 2021 they ran Woo Fest virtually thanks to DRPG before returning to the field in 2022.

Woo Fest was initially set up in memory of a local man, John Simons, who died at St Richard's Hospice in 2013 aged 66.
