The BBM&L try and have an Inflation Day every two years, and this coming event will be held on 15th May 2010 at Lakeside Lodge Golf Centre, Pidley near Huntingdon.

The Museum will try and inflate as many old hot-air balloons as possible.

As the Museum has acquired some new additions to their envelope collection in the last year, this will be a chance to inflate them and to air some of the older ones.

It is a superb site, with accommodation available plus camping if preferred. There is a dedicated inflation area for Friends of the Museum who bring their own balloons.

The Inflation day is sponsored by LAAS International

If the weather on the 15th is inclement, then the Inflation day will be held on the 16th May instead.

More details will follow on the Inflation Day page.
