Westcountry Balloon Fiesta & Day at the Races

After a break of 2 years we are delighted to announce that the Westcountry Balloon Fiesta is returning in 2010.

Moving from it’s traditional August Bank Holiday date, the event is set to see dozens of hot air balloons returning to the skies from the Fiesta's base in Tavistock.

Balloon flights at eith 0645 or 1715 hours can be booked ahead of the event.

The 2010 event returns to being balloon focused and will not feature the large number of sideshows or arena entertainment as in previous years – there will however be the ever popular onsite food offering and of course, the Round Table bar!

Please visit the website for booking availability and further information and news.
