🎈 Swindon’s Sky-High Summer Spectacle! 🎈
Get ready for lift-off at Swindon’s very first Balloon Festival, taking place on Friday 4th and Saturday 5th July 2025 at the stunning Lydiard Park.
With around 30 incredible hot air balloons expected — including quirky creations shaped like Cadbury Creme Eggs, aliens, snakes, sheep, and even the Aston Martin logo — the skies over Swindon will be transformed into a breathtaking panorama of colour and creativity.
