Watch: Miss Jason gets high at Bristol’s Balloon Fiesta
“What do you call somebody that is a fan of hot air balloons? A ballooner?” “A pilot.” “Oh, OK…”
If there’s one thing the UK doesn’t lack, it’s wacky culture. This second episode of our Miss Jason’s Britain series sees the Dazed 100 fashion reporter attend the Bristol International Balloon Fiesta.
The festival is somewhat of a Mecca for balloon fans, as a range of eclectically shaped inflatables and over 100,000 pilots descend on Bristol’s Ashton Court for the four-day proceedings. Some would say these numbers are inflated, but the fact remains that this is one of the world’s largest annual balloon festivals.
The day’s highlights include Miss Jason going full Khaleesi in front of a hot air balloon furnace and learning to sing The Wurzels’ “I’ve Got a Brand New Combine Harvester” like a local.
Watch the chaos unfold above.
