Indoor flying used to be almost like a secret society, it was so hard to find out about it. However, it is increasing in popularity very quickly now and many magazines carry event diaries which include details of indoor flying events. We have compiled the following list which we believe to be accurate, but you should check with the contact listed before travelling.
