Laage in Germany is supposedly having one. There should also be an ILA Berlin. I'd also watch out for anything in Serbia and/or the Balkans - I'm hoping for another Batajnica.

Another show that looks interesting is the Swiss one at Payerne to celebrate 100 years of the Swiss AF.

Kesckemet tends to be every 2 years, and as there is one in three weekends time it's unlikely there will be one next year. Also like just about every one else the Hungarians are skint, so it might not happen in 2 yeaars time either.

Nope - not listed on Scramble, they tend to rotate Volkel, Gilze and Leeuwarden.

Radom is also this year, and generaly held every two years so there is unlikely to be one next year. Kesckement is Ok for photos if you can get high enough to look over the piggin fence they put up. Radom you are the wrong side of the sun, and photos are better from outside.

If you're after Kescemet and Radom, I would try to book yourself a Ryanair/Easyjet/Wizzair flight ASAP and do them this year.
