In 2020 the Torbay Airshow became 'The English Riviera Airshow' and was to return in 2021 for a fifth year after 2020's cancellation. However, uncertainty surrounding Covid-19 forced a second cancellation. The rebranded show did launch in 2022 with four days of events, although there was only flying over the weekend. The two-day weekend seaside show with the new branding returned in 2023, 2024 & 2025 and is scheduled again for 2026. The show is based over the sea at Paignton and the ground events are centred on Paignton Green.
