Internationale Brixental Ballon Cup
Kirchberg in Tirol hosts the Brixental Balloon Cup. The official programme gives 19–26 September for the completed 2026 edition.
Around 30 teams were announced for the Brixental Balloon Cup, based at Stöcklfeld 33 in Kirchberg. The programme combined morning and late-afternoon flying with opportunities for passengers to reserve places. Flight routes depend on the conditions in the valley and mountains.
The 2026 listing quoted €290 for a morning passenger flight and €250 for an evening one. Its night glow was scheduled for 23 September, with 24 September as a fallback. These details describe that edition and should not be treated as next year’s timetable or prices.
The start date in our calendar has been corrected to match the official tourism listing. For a future visit, confirm the date range, passenger conditions and meeting point directly. No 2027 edition was established in this review. The photograph shows a balloon after landing in Kirchberg and provides local ballooning context.
