About

Launched in 1998 with just one eight-passenger balloon and a small base in Curtin, Dawn Drifters has grown into an unforgettable adventure that can now carry up to 42 passengers a day.

Over the years, Dawn Drifters has built a strong reputation, earning multiple tourism awards across the Canberra region, proof that it’s doing something pretty special.

Flights take off over the heart of Canberra most mornings (weather permitting), offering a peaceful, float-above-it-all experience. Drift along with the sunrise as the city wakes up beneath you, soaking in stunning 360° views from Parliament House all the way to the Brindabella ranges.
