The venues of this event are myriad, but the the most famous and popular location for Canberra Balloon Fiesta is the foreground of the old Parliament House in Canberra. The plush lawns are the perfect setting for this colourful event. Every year 30- 40 hot air balloons representing different participating countries take part in this festival and they float over the landmark national attractions of the city.
