Longleat Estate, Wiltshire, UK. 11th September 2021. Longleat hosted the biggest night glow event in the UK this year with dozens of hot air balloons lit up against the stunning backdrop of the Elizabethan stately home. Balloons of all shapes and sizes ignited their burners as part of the dramatic three-day musical show staged by Exclusive Ballooning at the Wiltshire estate. The event included appearances from Longleat’s own giant inflatable lion Simbaloo and koala Adelaide along with a wolf, panther, fox, owl and a sheep. The iconic balloon from Disney’s animated classic UP was also in attendance. There were more than 110 balloon inflations across the event, which peaked on Saturday with over 40 balloons taking part simultaneously.
