The accessible viewing area is positioned on the side of the arena, in a fenced off enclosure and offers a great view of the balloons during the mass ascents and the nightglow. However the arena itself is a natural amphitheatre and the viewing area on either side of the arena lends itself to those with accessibility requirements for those attending in larger groups.
Due to limited capacity, we are only able to offer one carer ticket with each blue badge ticket. You will need to present your blue badge alongside your ticket to gain access. All viewing area tickets are valid on a single day, and are non-refundable, even in cases where the balloons do not fly, or inflate.
For those requiring electric scooters or manual wheelchairs, this can be booked via our partner, Advanced Mobility by following this link.

Our closest parking option via Gate 6 is the fastest access to our launch field. A Disabled Blue Badge Parking Permit will be required to park within this area and the permit holder must also be present.
Last entry is STRICTLY 5pm due to the pedestrian entrance next to the entrance having high footfall after this time. All Car Park tickets are single entry only and non-refundable even in cases where the balloons do not fly, or inflate. Tickets must be purchased in advance, no tickets are available on the gate.
