Balloon Festival At the Mara This Weekend

The Africa Balloon Fiesta will hold a three-day hot air balloon festival in the world-renowned Maasai Mara National Reserve. The annual event starts this Friday all the way to Sunday at the Fig Tree Camp.

Different balloon safari companies will be on site to showcase their products. Balloon safaris can be taken by individuals or teams and are carried out all year round. These offer a spectacular view of the wildlife and landscape at the Mara.

The event will have a variety of activities including balloon rides and safaris, champagne breakfasts and bush dinners, game drives as well as photo competitions. There will also be a barbecue bush party with DJ Adrian and hosted by BBQ Live to keep guests entertained.

Part of the proceeds from the event will go into the anti-poaching and conservation efforts by the Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS) in the Mara ecosystem. Tickets are available at all Nakumatt outlets in Nairobi.
