Northampton Balloon Festival 17 - 19 Aug

Not particularly garden related but great fun all the same.

Each day is it is open with lots of stalls, displays etc and at sunrise and early evening each day the balloons fly, you get loads of balloons, some of which are shaped all taking off together it is a sight to behold, especially the sunrise flight which is well worth getting up for.

They also have balloon glows in the evening when the balloons are tethered to ground but light up to music this is followed by fireworks.
