almost 300,000 visitors flooding the Monumen Alaf

th
Putrajaya International Hot Air
Balloon Fiesta ended successfully last March. The four-day
family-fun affair themed ‘Colouring The Sky’ was held from
March 27 to 30, featuring an amazing line-up of hot air
balloons in various shapes and colours, including a flying
superbike balloon – the largest in the world – hailing all
the way from United Kingdom.
Other unique flights were the ice cream cone-shaped balloon fromBelgium, a heart-
shaped balloon from Taiwan and the return of the ever popular Darth Vader balloon
from Belgium. The astounding display of free-flying hot air balloons commenced from
as early as seven in the morning. If you missed this year’s colourful display, fret not!
You’ll have your chance to catch these and more at the seventh installation of the
Putrajaya International Hot Air Balloon Fiesta next year.
