Enjoy the show that defines Bristol's skyline as the balloons go up in August.
THIS EVENT TAKES PLACE AT: Ashton Court Estate, Long Ashton, Bristol BS41 9JN
The third of Bristol’s three main ‘B’s (alongside ‘Bridges’ and ‘Banksy’) is ‘Balloons’, with one of the city’s defining images indubitably a blue sky bursting with a bounty of the hot-aircraft.
With thousands of balloons populating the airways at both dawn and nightfall over the weekend of August 10th, family-friendly activities will take place at Ashton Court’s ground level as part of the free festival which has been a summer highlight since 1979.
The balloons launch from Ashton Court but can be appreciated from all over the city. As such the event is a free one; for more information go to the event's Facebook page.
