The Bristol International Balloon Fiesta is an annual event that draws thousands of people to Ashton Court on the edge of the city.
Clifton Suspension Bridge and Ben’s Balloon looking great
Ben has been taking in the early morning fresh air.
Up up up and away in his beautiful balloon.
Ben’s Balloon will be at Silverstone for the Formula 1 Grand Prix.
The large balloon on top is called an ‘envelope’. It holds hot air created by a heat source known as a burner.
Look out for Ben over head
