The European Balloon Festival is an international concentration of hot air balloons that was held for the first time in 1997 in Igualada. Since then, it has established itself as a competition and a reference festival at a European level.
The festival, which this year celebrates its 28th anniversary, will take place on July 11, 12, 13 and 14 in Igualada and will bring together more than 25,000 visitors and some fifty hot air balloons with their teams from all over the world.
Hot air balloons are one of the oldest forms of flight, capturing the imagination since their first flight in 1783. Functioning on the principle of buoyancy, where the hot air inside the balloon is lighter than the cooler air outside, these aerial vehicles have evolved into various types based on their design and use. Below are the main types of hot air balloons and their applications.
