Ballooning lights up the nights sky

A visually spectacular show featuring Hot Air Balloons, a Night Glow event is something that once seen is rarely forgotten. Crowds at the Coliseum in Rome have recently been treated to an event at which the surrounds of the famous Coliseum were illuminated in a synchronised night glow festival.
A night glow is an event that is often held as a climax to a hot air balloon festival. The balloons are set up at sunset in the launch area, which has to be large enough to accommodate dozens of Hot Air Balloons. The Hot Air Balloons are firmly anchored to the ground and the propane burners are ignited periodically to keep the balloons inflated with hot air. Because this is a night event, the balloons glow like huge light bulbs, giving a memorable display for those present, a lively and visually spectacular event not to be missed.
