Organisers of the Bristol International Balloon Fiesta are to offer an official campsite for the first time in the event’s 35-year history this August, in partnership with Camping Ninja.   

“This idea gives a cost-effective option for visitors travelling from miles around to stay nearby and stroll onto the event site for our balloon launches or just pop their head out of the tent to see them take off, providing the wind is in the right direction,” chairman, Chris Hathaway, said.

Bristol International Balloon Fiesta takes place from 8 to 11 August on Ashton Court Estate, Bristol.
