FIESTA CITY
8th - 10th August 2025
SCHOOLS TETHER ROADSHOW
THROUGHOUT JULY
We'll be looking to pop-up and tether balloons in school fields and large playgrounds and offer schools activity packs to promote this magical sport to future engineers and pilots.
This programme will run from 1 July until the end of the summer term.
Bristol schools are now invited to put their schools forward for a balloon visit. These visits will be within school hours and the balloon(s) will be tethered to the ground.
To nominate your school, please complete this form by Friday 30 May 2025.
Please provide as much detail as possible to give your school the best chance at being selected. As we require quite a bit of detail regarding the outside space that will host the balloon, we recommend it is completed by someone familiar with the school – a member of staff, school governor or member of the PTA.
BALLOONS ACROSS BRISTOL
THROUGHOUT AUGUST
Balloons are woven into Bristol’s identity, filling the skies and inspiring creativity across the city. Each summer, they appear in artwork, window displays, interiors, giftware, and special activities—from cafés and shops to schools and attractions.
This year, we’re celebrating that magic by showcasing the best balloon-inspired experiences across Bristol. Whether it’s a themed menu, an eye-catching display, or a hands-on activity, we’ll be sharing the must-visit spots so everyone can make the most of their balloon-filled adventure in the city. Know a place embracing the balloon spirit? Let us know!
More details about how to officially get involved to be announced soon.
