The European Balloon Festival is an international meeting of hot air balloons held for the first time in 1997 in Igualada. Since then it has become a competition and a benchmark in Europe.
Held in the first fortnight of July, the festival attracts over 25,000 visitors and gathers more than fifty hot air balloons with their teams from around the world.
For four days the festival brings together the fun aspect of flight, the beauty of the sport and competition. Visitors can enjoy a show of more than 50 balloons in flight and participate in a variety of activities including live music, open mic sessions, workshops and races.
