A hot air balloon festival will reach new heights when it returns to Norfolk next summer.

The third annual Balloon Festival will take place at Old Buckenham Country Park, near Attleborough, from Friday, August 11 until Sunday, August 13 2023. 

It will feature balloon flights and stunning evening night glows, with the option to buy day, weekend or camping tickets.

The organisers are promising that it will be "bigger and better than ever before", with tickets on sale through the Old Buckenham Country Park website from Tuesday, January 10.

Last year it was a sell-out event so tickets are expected to go quickly. 

This summer there were also street food outlets, a beer festival, a barbecue and live entertainment. 

Ben Devlin opened the 32-acre park in 2019 and it also has a lakeside cafe serving a range of treats, a camping and glamping site and a mile-long obstacle course.
