All you need to know about Balloon Festival

Admiring a balloon as it gravely soars into the air, secure in its passage through the wind, has a peculiar quality. In the clouds, a hot air balloon appears as a sign of optimism. The possibility will be magnified to the most powerful at a hot air balloon festival. When you fly a balloon, you will experience how wonderful it is to soar over the sky like a Falcons (National bird of Qatar). Balloons are very gorgeous and colorful. With hot air balloons filling the sky every morning and a variety of additional entertainment, the Qatar Balloon Festival will be without a doubt one of the highlights of the year. The third edition of the Qatar Balloon Festival is a ten-day, family-friendly festival with a stunningly colored show including more than 50 hot air balloons from across the globe.
