We are pleased to invite all balloonists to the 2021 Canowindra International Balloon Challenge to be held from 24 April to 2 May 2021.
 
Thanks to the generous support of the local council and community the 2021 event will proceed.
 
We will be running a competition across the 24th of April till the 2nd of May to provide all balloonists the opportunity to hone their skills and also to provide the Worlds team members the opportunity to practice prior to World Championship events.
 
All balloonists are welcome and fiesta balloons are as important to us as the competitors.
 

Things have been very tough in the Canowindra area with the extended drought really taking its toll. The event is targeted at bringing people into the main street and driving economic impact into a struggling region of NSW. We have also partnered with Aussie Helpers drought relief charity to help support local communities.

We will have more information in the near future but this is just a heads up to allow you to make plans and book accommodation. We will have some camp sites available as per previous years for balloonists and if you are interested in this please send Adam Barrow a message on Facebook.

If you can make it out to support the event and community it would be great to see you there again.
