European Balloon Festival
One of the most beautiful and spectacular festivals returns to Barcelona. Dozens of balloons will take off and paint the sky in vivid colours.
About this event
Igualada will once again host the European Balloon Festival in July.
Hot-air balloon flights at Igualada’s famous international festival have been cancelled this year because of the fire risk in Catalonia.
The European Balloon Festival was first held in 1977. Since then, it has been an international competition in this beautiful sport. Throughout the festival, visitors can enjoy the spectacle of more than 50 balloons flying at the same time, take part in the various scheduled activities or take a balloon flight with the participating teams.
All flights take place early in the morning and in the afternoon, when weather conditions are favourable for flying.
