A NEW airshow is coming to Dorset – a Guy Ritchie’s airfield.
The Compton Abbas Air Show is set to debut on August 10 and 11, at the airfield owned by the Hollywood film producer, director and brewery owner.
Though few details have yet been confirmed, the show will run between 10am and 5pm.
It comes after Mr Ritchie previous detailed his vision for the airfield after completing the purchase of the site in February last year.
He said he was hoping to make visiting Compton Abbas Airfield “a more complete experience”, which could potentially include an aviation museum.

“We want to take aviation more seriously, particularly in terms of the heritage aspect, principally selfishly, because I am interested in the aesthetic of that,” he told The Flyer magazine.
Meanwhile, the airfield has confirmed the restaurant and bar on the site will be reopening on Wednesday (January 24).
