We're thrilled to announce that House of Boë , Tofka Vodka, Neptune Rum , and The Artisan Drinks Co proudly sponsored The Bristol International Balloon Fiesta this year! 🌍🎈 As one of the world’s most spectacular ballooning events, the Fiesta offered us a unique platform to showcase our premium brands to a diverse and vibrant audience. This partnership was a perfect blend of innovation, celebration, and tradition, bringing our exceptional spirits and mixers to new heights—literally! Neptune Rum and Boë Gin had the honor of being the official landing gifts for the pilots and crews who participated in the Fiesta. This tradition of presenting a gift upon landing dates back to the early days of ballooning in the 18th century. Back then, locals were often startled by the sudden appearance of balloons descending from the sky. To ease concerns, balloonists would offer bottles of champagne as a peace offering, turning a moment of uncertainty into one of celebration. We were excited to continue this historic tradition by gifting our own premium spirits, symbolizing camaraderie and the shared joy of flight. To make this celebration even more special, our friends at Artisan Drinks provided the perfect mixers, enhancing every sip and elevating the experience for all attendees. We invite you to watch our promotional video, where the magic of The Bristol International Balloon Fiesta comes to life, and see how House of Boë, Tofka, Neptune, and Artisan Drinks contributed to an unforgettable event. This sponsorship not only connected us with thousands of festival-goers but also reinforced our commitment to quality, craftsmanship, and the spirit of adventure. Here’s to more sky-high adventures together! 🚀🥂 A huge thank you to the incredible team at Richmond Event Management and the organisers of The Bristol International Balloon Fiesta for making this event a soaring success! 🎈 Your dedication, hard work, and seamless coordination allowed House of Boë, Tofka Vodka, Neptune Rum, and Artisan Drinks to shine as sponsors, and we're truly grateful for the opportunity to be part of such a spectacular celebration. Here’s to many more successful events in the future!

Join us at Bristol International Balloon Fiesta from the 9th to 11th August 2024 where you can try our full portfolio in our House of Boë & Neptune Rum activation area. The Bristol International Balloon Fiesta is a free to attend, three-day event that celebrates the city and its heritage links to the remarkable world of hot air ballooning. From Friday 9th to Sunday 11th August, the rolling hills of Ashton Court on the outskirts of the city of Bristol are home to a temporary playground of entertainment, and a stage set ready and waiting for over 100 hot air balloons to take flight. This iconic event has been a steadfast in the UK’s event calendar for more than four decades. With the city of Bristol playing the best matched host as the birthplace of ballooning in Europe, and now the capital of the sport worldwide. Over the years, the impact of the event has grown far beyond the initial ambitions of a group of friends in 1979. It is now a Bristol institution, and is a synonymous icon, representing the region around the world. Come and join us for a cocktail 🍸 Bristol International Balloon Fiesta
