Expired

Marvel at hot air balloons floating across the city during the Canberra Balloon Spectacular. Held over nine days, the Canberra skyline turns into a sea of colour and movement.

The balloons launch each morning from around 6.15am and for those who have braved the dawn start there's a hot breakfast to enjoy as the balloons lift off and drift across the dawn sky.

This event is free for spectators.

This event is weather dependent. Daily announcements if balloons will launch and fly are made at around 6am and published on the Enlighten website and via the Enlighten Festival and EventsACT social channels.

To see the full program of Enlighten Festival visit the website for more information.
