The last remaining Blenheim - that featured in the 2017 film Dunkirk - is a "real draw" before the Red Arrows close the air show on Sunday.

"As well as the Red Arrows, having the last remaining Bristol Blenheim in the world is a real draw for visitors and offers the chance to see a plane instrumental in providing cover during the Dunkirk evacuation," said Denbighshire council leader Hugh Evans.

The full line-up includes Russian and German military aircraft from the Second World War and a gyroplane which can fly within a 100ft of the crowd.

Car parks at the Sky Tower, Morley Road, West Kinmel Street, the Pavilion Theatre and Quay Street in Rhyl are open but the town's underground car park is shut for refurbishment.

North Wales Police has also warned that drones should not be flown in the area of the air show as it will be subject to a Restricted Airspace Temporary Order.

Trains between north Wales and London will be longer over the bank holiday weekend due to engineering work while Virgin services will only run between Holyhead and Crewe.
