Not over the city, somewhere better

Flying directly over Stockholm means permits, restricted airspace, and compromise. So we skip all that. Our launch sites sit west of the capital, where the Mälaren valley’s rolling farmland gives way to ancient forests and quiet lakeshores. Misty meadows, golden fields, island-dotted waterways. The kind of Sweden you don’t see from a car window.

Common Questions

There's a few of us – can we be sure we'll be on the same flight?
Of course! Our flight calendar offers information on the number of open spots in each flight. Just choose one that has enough spaces for all of you and you sign everyone up for the same flight.
How many people are in the basket?
It depends – typically between 10-22 people.
Can I bring children?
Yes, children at least 130cm tall may join flights, provided they are able to safely participate and are accompanied by a guardian on board.
Can I change the flight date? What if my flight gets cancelled due to weather conditions?
Your ticket is valid for 24 months. On average, our passengers have to sign up for 2 or 3 flights before they actually fly as our flights are 100% dependent on safe weather conditions. Sometimes they fly on the 1st flight they signed up for, but sometimes it takes 3 or even 4 times before they fly. The moment your flight gets cancelled, your booking code becomes active again and you may sign up for another flight.
How long does the flight last?
We usually spend about an hour in the air. However, this depends entirely on terrain and weather conditions. Sometimes we land after just 50 minutes, as continuing the flight would require staying in the air much longer (for example, when approaching a city or dense forest). At other times, we may fly for 70 or even 80 minutes if the situation requires it. Our balloons are always equipped with enough gas to safely remain airborne for 100–120 minutes. However, you should set aside about 3–4 hours for the entire adventure. This includes a short passenger briefing, balloon setup, the flight itself, packing up the balloon, and a celebratory glass of sparkling wine shared with fellow passengers and the crew.

Balloon Flights Near Stockholm

Take to the skies with DreamBalloon and experience Stockholm from a perspective few ever do. Glide gently above treetops and rooftops, drift across open countryside and shimmering water, past the towers and spires of the city and the scattered islands of the archipelago beyond.

The wind decides the route – over Ekerö and the Mälaren valley one morning, above Djursholm and the coast the next – and that’s exactly as it should be. Every flight is its own thing. It’s the journey itself you’ll remember.

Flights in the Stockholm region typically last about an hour in the air, with the full experience – preparation, inflation, and the traditional celebratory toast after landing – taking around three hours. We operate from multiple launch sites across the region, selecting the best spot each day based on wind and weather. Sunrise and sunset flights are especially beautiful, the landscape lit in gold below you and nothing but open sky above.

We fly from spring through autumn, with May, June, and September offering the calmest conditions and the most extraordinary light.

With over 25 years of experience, our licensed pilots bring every flight in safely and smoothly – leaving you free to simply look out and take it all in.

Whether it’s a gift, a shared adventure, or something you’ve always wanted to do for yourself, a balloon flight over Stockholm has a way of staying with people for a long time.
