Accreditation

Whether it's access to the take-off area, the possibility of flying in a hot-air balloon or interviewing a pilot, as a member of the media, you have the possibility to access the heart of our event!

To do so, you must fill in our accreditation form and be registered by the Festival’s press service.

Our services:

Ground

With the festival press badge, you have access to the take-off area. You will be able to film and photograph the crews and pilots right in the heart of the action!

Interview

You would like to carry out an interview with one of the pilots or a member of the organisation? We will help you find the perfect person for your report!

Flights

Balloon and helicopter flights are possible every day of the festival! Take your place in the basket and broadcast this unique moment.

Drones

For security reasons, special areas for the flight of drones are provided around the take-off area. Once the flight has been validated by the organisation, fly alongside the hot-air balloons!

The online accreditation is not yet open for 2024!
