During the 1980s, an annual balloon race was held in the park.

This company now is the host of the largest and most well attended balloon race.

Activities included a sponsored walk, a balloon race and a basketball shoot against the clock, but numerous smaller events took place.

The around-the-world balloon race, by contrast, is a nonsensical exercise.

The balloon race at the recent Liverpool Show boosted the appeal by £1,500.

One of the most well-known is the annual hot-air balloon race, which is held the first weekend in June each year.

The balloon race is the hot-dog-eating contest of aviation.

These events included a series of craft fayres, a balloon race during harbour day and a highly successful fashion week.

It is the first international balloon race.

The balloons take on an almost fictional appearance, not unlike a paper lantern which marks the beginning of the Balloon Race.
