Hot Air Balloon Festival and Airshow Set to Soar Over Albay Next Weekend

                                                            

 

 From May 3-5, 2024, the old Legazpi Airport in Albay will transform into a vibrant playground for enthusiasts of all things airborne. "A Weekend of Everything that Flies," the country's exclusive airshow experience typically hosted in Clark, Pampanga, will debut in the Bicol region, with the iconic Mayon Volcano providing a breathtaking backdrop.

 

Initiated by Ako Bicol party-list representative, Cong. Zaldy Co, the event draws inspiration from renowned hot air balloon festivals worldwide, particularly in Clark, Pampanga, and the daily flights of Cappadocia, Turkey. Co envisions this international spectacle, headlined by foreign pilots and participants, as a catalyst for revitalizing tourism throughout Albay and the wider Bicol region.

 

"In Cappadocia, Turkey, we marveled at hot air balloons drifting over stunning landscapes. Now, imagine these vibrant balloons against the backdrop of the majestic Mayon Volcano," Co expressed. "This event promises to attract spectators, generate tourism-related employment, bolster sales of local products, and invigorate our regional economy."

 

Attendees can anticipate a captivating array of hot air balloons, including whimsical shapes like Brazil's Bidu and the UK's Bella and Buster (different dogs), Party Balloon from USA, UK's Dyno (a dinosaur), and Belgium's Princess Nelly (an elephant) among others. Additionally, the Global Stars aerobatic team will dazzle spectators with thrilling aircraft stunts, accompanied by daytime smoke trails and nighttime pyrotechnics.

The festivities continue with drone light shows, fireworks displays, and the enchanting Night Glow, where hot air balloons illuminate the evening sky to synchronized music. Throughout the event, visitors can explore exhibitions featuring paramotors, kites, FPV drones, ultralight planes, and even car drifters, all set against the scenic runway backdrop.

Indulge in Bicol's renowned local cuisine and products showcased in the "Fly Market" and food booths scattered across the venue. While entrance to the event is free, those seeking to experience hot air balloon flights, tethered rides, tandem skydiving, or tandem paragliding are advised to book tickets online in advance, as slots are limited. 

 

Organized by the Philippine International Hot Air Balloon Fiesta (PIHABF), renowned for its annual airshow in Clark, Pampanga, and New Clark City, Tarlac, the event continues a tradition of nearly three decades. Its core objectives remain steadfast: to ignite aviation interest among youth, instill discipline in aspiring pilots, and foster a spirit of community volunteerism.

 

Tickets for rides and experiences are available at www.balloonfiesta.ph. Stay updated on event details via PIHABF's official social media channels: Facebook – www.facebook.com/pihabf Instagram – @philballoonfest TikTok – @philballoonfiesta

Despite Ivana’s jam-packed schedule juggling between creating content and shooting TV shows, like Batang Quiapo, she’s still able to live freely. It’s all thanks to her reliable smartphone, the Infinix NOTE 40 Pro+ 5G.

YouTube vlogger and actress Ivana Alawi has everything on her phone. Infinix NOTE 40 Pro+ 5G’s fast charging lets her live freely and worry-free.

 

“I do everything on my phone, as in! I have meetings on my phone and read comments on my posts. I also watch a lot of other creators’ content and my own TV shows. Kaya sobrang ganda ng Infinix NOTE 40 Pro+ 5G because I can do all of this,” Ivana says.

 

The Infinix NOTE 40 Pro Series is designed to power up users’ lifestyles with its groundbreaking 100W All-Round Fast Charge 2.0 and 20W Wireless Charge.

She adds that it’s also great for travelers like her because they can be fully charged while touring for hours.

 

Vlogger-approved

Apart from its fast-charging capabilities, the Infinix NOTE 40 Pro+ 5G is ideal for streaming and creating content. Ivana says the clear 108MP main camera and 32MP front camera is “really handy for my selfies and vlogs.” The phone’s 3D-Curved 120Hz AMOLED Display Corning® Gorilla® Glass also makes it easier to check her shots and watch content in hi-res 1080p quality.

Ivana is happy and grateful that she has found a smartphone that can keep up with her busy schedule and lets her live life with no battery issues dragging her down. So much so that even her family has started using Infinix as well.
