Friday 8 May marks the 75th anniversary of VE Day, otherwise known as Victory in Europe Day.
VE Day commemorates the surrender of Nazi Germany to the allied forces in the Second World War, signalling an end to six years of hardship and battle.
As part of today’s celebrations, the Red Arrows will be performing a ceremonial flypast over London.
The Red Arrows are officially known as the Royal Air Force Aerobatic Team.
What time is the Red Arrows flypast taking place for VE Day?
The Red Arrows flypast reportedly departed from their base at RAF Scampton at 9.37am.
The flypast then travelled down the east coast of England before heading to London.
When in the capital, the Red Arrows are due to fly over Westminster at 10.10am, before returning to base at 10.33am.
The Care For Veterans website states that a Spitfire flypast is due to pass over Worthing's Care Home for Veterans at 1.20pm.
The RAF Typhoons are also due to appear over Cardiff, Edinburgh and Belfast.
How can I watch?
If you miss the flypast when it is actually taking place, you will be able to catch up with the coverage later on in the day.
The Red Arrows flypast will be broadcast on the BBC at 3pm as part of its VE Day coverage.
The Queen is due to deliver a special televised address to mark the 75th anniversary of victory in Europe.
The royal’s speech will be broadcast on BBC One at 9pm, the same time her father, King George VI, delivered a radio address announcing Nazi Germany’s surrender in 1945.
