Each virtual balloon will follow a simulated flight pattern based on live weather conditions in Lapland, such as wind speed and temperature. The race starts on Christmas Day at 12 noon from Santa’s Village in Lapland ( after he’s come back from delivering all those presents he needs something to do with the elves!!) and finishes 7 days later Thursday December the 31st 2020. The balloons which travels the furthest in 7 days wins one of our superb Christmas hampers!

Each balloon costs just £3 and you can buy as many as you like - it's fun for all ages, and as it's such a cool way to learn more about geography and meteorology it's great for teachers, parents and grandparents to do with children.
