Red Bull is running its epic Flutag event in Hyde Park this summer.
The show will display "daredevil pilots" battling gravity as they launch their human-powered aircraft into the skies.
Event organisers explain: "The world will be watching as they gather speed on the ramp, soar into the wild blue yonder and defy gravity ... for a few glorious moments that is, before splashdown!"
This year the event is ticketed and so those wishing to watch the pilots soar or skydive have to register for entrance at the Red Bull website.
Red Bull will begin launching willing contestants off the ramp at 1pm and spectators who want a good view are advised to arrive early.
Those living outside the capital will find it easier to reach the event than participants will to get airborne as the Chiltern Railways line travels throughout the Midlands and into London Marylebone.
Visitors can then take the Underground to Hyde Park, which is close to a number of stations.
Did you know that you can travel between London and Birmingham for as little as £5? Click here to find out about our Chiltern Railways E ticket.
