Our maiden hot air balloon passenger flight from the Cornbury Music festival, Charlbury, in the Cotswolds on the border between Oxfordshire and Gloucestershire. Charlbury is 20 miles from Oxford.
Cornbury Festival goers watch the balloons inflate before an evening flight from Cornbury over the Cotswolds. Champagne is always served at the end of the balloon ride. This flight took us east towards Oxford.

The Cornbury Music Festival, held annually in mid-summer in the Cotswolds, is a fantastic ballooning venue. As well as having a crowd of thousands to wave you off, you can be serenaded by Joe Cocker when you get back from your flight !
The inside of the hot air balloon looks like a stained glass window. Balloon flights over Oxfordshire make a fantastic gift experience, whether for Christmas, birthday, or an anniversary.
Our hot air balloon floats over the main stage at Cornbury Music Festival in Oxfordshire as Bonnie Tyler belts out her greatest hits.

As we drift dreamily over the Cornbury main stage it’s harder to know who is the biggest attraction – are 7000 people looking at us in our balloon or the act on the stage below? It certainly gives us a chance to see the festival from a different perspective.
Bonnie Tyler performs at the Cornbury Music Festival in the Cotswolds while passengers in our hot air balloon drift slowly above the stage. We’ll end the flight with a glass of champagne.
The crowd at Cornbury Music Festival as seen from a hot air balloon 10 minutes after take off. Other balloons are still inflating in the background.

Bonnie Tyler is performing when we take-off. As we lift off we get a big round of applause from the crowd. A few minutes after take-off we are looking back at the crowd and the main stage as we fly at treetop height above the ancient woodland which surrounds the festival.
Is that a 2-headed lama? There is plenty of time for fun at Cornbury, near Oxford, when we are not flying champagne hot air balloon rides.
Ballooning is only one activity at Cornbury. This is one of our youngest crew members enjoying himself on a bouncy castle!

There’s plenty of time for other activities when we’re not flying !

Disappearing off over the Cotswolds after flying over the main stage at Cornbury in our hot air balloon. We flew over both Oxfordshire and Gloucestershire, and ended the flight with a champagne toast.
Our hot air balloon is flying behind the balloon with the Union Jack. This photo is taken from the back of the Cornbury crowd. A similar picture appeared in Word music magazine.
The Gulf Air hot air balloon flying out of the Cornbury music festival. The pilot takes passengers for hot air balloon rides all over the world, including in London and the south east of England.

Cornbury really is a wonderful laidback festival, and we hope to be back there again this year. Fingers crossed for beautiful weather! If you fancy booking a flight for the festival, get in touch.
