A famous Northampton venue will soon welcome back a beloved balloon-based event.
This year, The Racecourse is once again hosting the Northampton Balloon Festival. The summer event will run over three days in August, promising entertainment as the skies over Northampton town will become filled with hot air balloons.
For 2025, the official sponsors and partners of the event include Northampton Town Council, The No 1 Food People, Chelsea Hire, NSUK Group, Big J’s Funfair Attractions, Vista Balloons, Phipps NBC and Northampton marketing agency, Eighty Eight Digital.
Event organisers often pay tribute to partners and sponsors on their promotional materials with help from dedicated flyer printing services.
Balloon enthusiasts coming to the long-running event will get to witness expert balloonists taking off at sunrise and sunset. There will also be a funfair designed for all ages, live entertainment in the arena and a circus workshop led by skilled performers.
An extensive selection of festival drinks and food will be available to try, and there will be trade stalls to explore. Other entertainment includes bird of prey displays and the iconic hot air balloon glow, where teams light up their aircraft in time to music.
The Northampton Balloon Festival will now be at The Racecourse from Friday, August 15 to Sunday, August 17. The racing venue is easy to find on Kettering Road in Northampton.
