Balloon festival provides spectacular sight


* One of the balloons heads from the field and across town.



* A member of the Red Devils display team in action.



* Another of the balloons reaches for the sky.


* A third balloon gets airborne.

Llangollen Balloon Festival provided a thrilling display for scores of people waiting on the bridge and across town earlier this evening.

Around half a dozen colourful balloons launched from the International Pavilion field around teatime to drift slowly towards Regent Street.

Shortly afterwards there was another spectacular sight as members of the Red Devils Parachute Display Team went through their paces hundreds of feet above the town.
