Hot Air Balloon Festival “Montgolfieria”

From 14 to 16 May in Makariv district, the family hot air balloon festival “Montgolfieria. Mum, I’m Home”, timed to coincide with Mother’s Day, will take place. Festival guests can attend it as spectators or as participants in the flights.

Balloon launches are scheduled for 14 May at 18:00, and on 15 and 16 May at dawn at 5:00 and in the evening at 18:00.

Did you know that:

– in the warm season hot air balloons cannot fly during the day because of overheated air, which hinders the take-off of aerostats,

– all over the world, flights in the warm season take place at dawn and at sunset,

– balloon flights depend on weather conditions. Balloon launches are possible in the absence of strong wind, precipitation and thunderstorms.

The cost of visiting the grounds of the “Montgolfieria” festival near Kyiv will be 190 hryvnias per family, and a hot air balloon flight will cost 3,190 hryvnias per person.

The number of places for flights is limited, the organisers note.
