The Ashton Court estate will come alive with colour and entertainment once again in August as the annual balloon fiesta takes to the skies.
Europe’s largest ballooning event, an amazing spectacle and free event for the whole family from 8-11 August, will feature 150 hot air balloons, taking off at dawn and lighting up the skies at night, with evening glows, as well as fun activities on the ground to keep the family entertained.
The event features four days of extravagant hot-air balloon displays with 500,000 visitors gathering in the gorgeous grounds of Ashton Court to watch balloons of all shapes and sizes lift off over the city of Bristol.
Entertainment for all the family includes fairground rides, delicious food stalls and bars, face painting and acoustic music areas.
Somerset Life has teamed up with event organisers to offer one lucky winner the chance to win a hot air balloon ride on the Friday morning of the event.
