So as another Northampton Balloon Festival closes, we can reflect on what was our 25th Anniversary!

We managed to get three out of six flights over the weekend, with Saturday evening and Sunday’s wind proving too strong for the balloons to fly safely.

The sky was full of colour over Northamptonshire this morning as around 20 hot air balloons took to the air for the first launch of the 2014 Northampton Balloon Festival.

Starting at 6am, the balloons took off from Billing Aquadrome and drifted south towards Horton with many landing in and around Ravenstone.

Hasn’t the time flown! It’s very nearly that time again, over 40 balloons will head to Northampton this weekend to add a splash a colour to the skies.

Weather permitting, launches will take place on Friday, Saturday and Sunday at both 6am and 6pm. A full break down of daily activities can be found here.
