Review of Northampton Balloon Festival
Food and rides were unbelievably expensive. £3.50 for a bottle of c**e. Waiting until 7:00 pm to see the balloons to be told at 5:00pm the balloons would not be flying, so we left and then the balloons flew off at 7:00.
Considering it is named the balloon festival it was not very balloon orientated. More just a massive rip off for everything.
S**t event

Review of Northampton Balloon Festival
Hardly any balloons, the event was mostly an overpriced funfair. Not sure why you have to pay for tickets when everything inside the event is paid for! Was the ticket price just to cover looking at 3 balloons? Because the event is over 3 days, it's completely random how many you will be able to see unless you stay for hours or over multiple days.

Review of Northampton Balloon Festival
It took over 2 hours to go less than a half a mile to get into the venue to park meaning we missed some of the attractions/events. Whilst we enjoyed the balloons we saw going up there wasn't as many shaped balloons as advertised. The tents were overcrowded so you couldn't really look at what people were selling or advertising. The bins were overflowing and there were no lights in the portable toilets. Plus it appeared a large section of grass had not been cut meaning you couldn't sit down and enjoy watching the balloons. The biggest issue for us related to being sold two small Whippy ice creams in a tub with no sauce, no flake and no sprinkles for £6 each due to my children not being able to eat the cones so apparently it became a sundae! The vendor seems to think its justified and that they can charge what they like as nobody can stop them.
