Edinburgh Airport

Spotters' competition

We're launching a brand new monthly Spotters' Competition, celebrating the incredible aircraft and airport content captured by our spotter community.

Each month until October, we're inviting you to submit your favourite photo or video taken at the airport during that month. From these entries, we'll select a monthly winner, with all winners receiving an invitation to attend our Spotters' Day later this year.

Whether you're capturing brand new livery, a sunset departure, or a rare visitor, we want to see your work.

How it works

  1. Click here to access the submission form. (Opens in a new tab)

  2. Submit your favourite image or video captured during the relevant month.

  3. Wait to hear from us to find out if your content has been selected.

Even if your submission isn’t selected as a winner, it may still be featured on our social media platforms with a shoutout to your page.
