Comment from Emma
For five days every autumn the Hamilton and Waikato region gears up for its annual Balloons over Waikato festival. Attracting balloonists from all over the world, the festival features dozens of hot air balloons in all shapes and sizes and is a great day out for families and anyone who wants to see these colorful balloons take flight.
