Most of these high altitude balloons are made in a factory in Bristol. We also have an international balloon festival each year in August. Some of the balloons are amazing because with the shapes you would never believe they get off the ground.

I went up for a balloon ride a few years ago- it was absolutely stonking (to borrow a phrase I have heard somewhere before). We even went over our house.
