The municipality of Oeiras will host, on September 24, the International Hot Air Balloon Festival, which will feature several free activities.

In addition to the various free activities that will be available on September 24, the International Hot Air Balloon Festival will also offer a Night Glow event, a nightly show of light, colour and sound, where the flames from the burners of the balloons are released to the rhythm of the music, which is expected to be a highlight of the festival.

Free captive flights are also available according to the organisers: “The flight will allow you to have a 360-degree view of Quinta de Cima do Palácio do Marquês de Pombal and its gardens, is suitable for all ages and free of charge”, states Publibalão, an entity that is organising the event alongside the council.
