Red Bull Flugtag
Red Bull Flugtag Returns to Ireland!
Calling Ireland’s amateur aviators! On May 20th in Dún Laoghaire, Co. Dublin, Red Bull Flugtag challenges anyone who is innovative (and bonkers) enough to defy gravity in front of 100,000 people...
Red Bull Flugtag is an international event where teams will have to construct, display, and launch a self-made flying contraption off a 9-metre high ramp above water. The competition is marked by three criteria: distance, creativity of craft and showmanship.

All the madness that happened last time we held Red Bull Flugtag...
A quick lesson on flying… Step 1, build an aircraft with wings that will, hopefully, catch some air (a.k.a. lift!). Step 2, with a run-up, launch the aircraft from the pier (aka. thrust!). Add a final splash of Red Bull in the mix and there you have it… the physics of flying, plane and simple!
But that’s not all… a true Flugtag champion soars in style! We’ve all seen a regular plane in the sky *yawn* but what about a flying unicorn? Or a flying packet of digestives? The world is yours to command captain and we want YOU in the cockpit!
If you are interested in participating, applications open 21st February (click here for more details). For any of you sensible enough to believe in gravity, support your flying friends online and join them for a day of fun at Dún Laoghaire Pier on Sunday, 20th May!
The sky’s the limit!
