8th Putrajaya International Hot Air Balloon Fiesta 2016

For the 8th year, Putrajaya International Hot Air Balloon Fiesta will be back from March 11th to 13th, 2016.

As for myself, being a dedicated visitor for the past 8 years :) This year, i hope to be able to get the chance for a free-balloon ride, i mean the
untethered one of course.
as it would be a great opportunity for me to snap pictures from high up. 



Expect a more grandeur sight and scene as this year, there will be 20 hot air balloons, with 5 special ones, such as :

Bobo the Happy Lobster from Belgium
Yellow Jacket Bee from Brazil
Mister Z from USA
First time flown in Asia : Alien Rocket from Canada
La Replica, an exact replica of the first hot air balloon flown by the Montgolfier Brothers many many years ago.

Best time to view them?

Morning : before 7 am
Evening : from 6 pm onwards.

Expect bigger and better Fiesta this year. 



Exciting features : Yoga and Zumba session, double capacity of the lauching field and night glow access, with MyBalloonClub will be at a better spot enable its members to more enjoyable time there.Fun activities for everyone!

Details regarding the events can be view at : myballoonfiesta.com
p/s : You might want to consider buying your tickets online as the queue sometimes can be bit longer. :) 





Oh, in case you wanted to get 'up' earlier then everyone else, try the commercial flight with www.myballoonadventure.com, as they will take you around (in a hot air balloon of course) Putrajaya scenic landscape.
