THE Air Festival fun doesn't stop with the roar of the planes.

Entertainment continues into the evening with Flight Nights tonight until Saturday.

Following the success of this summer's Friday Night Family Fiesta, superheroes including Batman and Superman will be keeping kids entertained.

On all three nights, the Lower Gardens will be lit up with a Balloon Glow. Entertainment, from 6.30pm each evening, will include music in the bandstand and birds of prey from the Liberty Raptor and Reptile Centre.

On Saturday, as well as the Balloon Glow, there will be the Heliosphere, a helium-filled balloon which rises and falls to music as an acrobat suspended underneath tumbles and turns. Look out also for the Electroglide Angels and the Ace Air, entertaining crowds in the Lower Gardens.

Saturday sees the Big Bang firework display at 10pm, as well as a line-up of entertainment from 6.30pm including the Heliosphere, Balloon Glow, Armitage "Tiger" Thomson and the Electroglide Angels. The RAF jazz band will perform at the bandstand.

There will also be live music on Sunday until 9pm.

Bournemouth town centre will be open late tonight, Friday and Saturday, with a real model lightning cockpit and Concorde display model in the Square from 10am-10pm until Saturday, and 10am-4pm on Sunday.
