The music was very quiet during the night time glow. The rides were far too expensive. The food vans were pricey but along with the normal prices at events. The car parking needs to be sorted as it sends that part of Northampton into an absolute gridlock! The atmosphere was great though, lots of stalls to look at. It was amazing to see the hot air balloons.

I've been coming to this event since it started, as I lived on St Georges Avenue in the 80's. Everything was too expensive, and some of the food was a disgrace. Doughnuts ????????? yuck. You need to do better next year.

Traffic getting into the venue was horrendous but once in it was ok, thought it was too long to wait for evening session waiting for balloons to light up.

Couldn't get into the event. Waited 2 hours in traffic and didn't move.

We could see that parking attendants were only letting a couple of cars in at a time, causing severe traffic congestion.

Good day out with plenty of entertainment for all ages. Balloons were (pardon the pun) uplifting! Made the little ones smile lots. Highly recommend.

Looking forward to this having attended this advent in past years , I can only comment about the time we were there which was on Saturday between 1pm until 4:30 pm , we only saw 1 ballon that was being inflated , past years there was ballon's being inflated all day, the price of the food was excessive at £8 for a hot dog or gourmet burger , a dried bun with a burger a gourmet meal it is not.
A £100 spend for the day for the rides , food & drink and to see 1 ballon was very much disappointing .
