Airy highlights: hot air balloons and airship over Soest Kirmes!
On Friday afternoon, November 7th, 2025, the All Saints' Fair in Soest experienced a very special spectacle: several hot air balloons and an airship floated above the fair. In a colorful sky illuminated by the autumn sun, Dominik Pfeiffer, chairman of the “Warsteiner Happy Ballooning” association, presented the premiere of his hot air balloon.
In total, the team started with four balloons and was accompanied by two more balloons and the airship. “The preparations for this flight began a week earlier and were helped by the positive weather forecast,” says Pfeiffer. The balloonists took off slightly southwest of the city and ascended into a layer of air that took them over the picturesque old town. They reached a height of around 250 meters at the Wiesenkirche.
An unforgettable view
The ride over the fair was an unforgettable experience for the balloonists. “The view was simply breathtaking,” enthuses Pfeiffer as the gentle breeze led them northeast to a safe landing in a field. A large number of onlookers gathered at the fair to experience this unusual spectacle up close.
Dominik Pfeiffer has not yet visited the fair on foot this year, but plans to do so on Sunday with his family. The combination of a classic fair and the magical sight of hot air balloons creates a festive atmosphere among visitors.
