Creighton Aloe, Steam Train &
Hot Air Balloon Festival


DATE: Annually in July

We launch at sunrise when the air is cool and stable. Check in at the Country Club, across the road from the railway station at 06:30 am please don’t be later than 06:45 am or you may miss the inflation of the balloon. You will be welcomed with a hot drink. The flight is very gentle, it’s just you and the elements. Please remember all flights are weather dependent. The crew follows the balloon during the flight in a vehicle, and deliver the next group of passengers when the balloon lands after half an hour. Passengers who booked for an hour stay on board, the rest disembark and the new group climbs on board. The crew then returns the first group of passengers to the Country Club. After returning you can look for the ladies selling bacon and egg rolls, and enjoy the craft market.

The Creighton Aloe Festival has temporarily been suspended. Watch this space for next years dates and information.
