GlideFest

Tamworth GlideFest

E-RES, LEG & Electric Scramble

12 & 13 September, 2026

This low-key glider event is held each year at the Tamworth Club field. It is timed to provide an opportunity for slope flyers at SlopeFest to join in.

The weekend events will be held in a relaxed manner. The idea is to have fun flying simple electric glider events.

The events are: E-RES ; Limited Electric Glider ; Electric Scramble - an extremely simple and fun event.

Rules for the events can be seen on the AEFA Rules page.

The brochure for the event can be downloaded from the link below.
