In a couple of days the first festival will announce that we will attend with our latest retired shape. So it’s time to public announce that the Dalarna Horse Special Shape is in our collection! Unfortunately due to weather circumstances we weren’t able to inflate it yet so here are some pictures made of it at Midlands Air Festival in 2019. Soon we will announce our festival schedule were will appear with different balloons from the collection!

The first balloon of the collection that was inflated this year is our Ice cream. It saw the daylight for the first time in 7 years. Many thanks to our friends at DBBallooning to make this private inflation possible a couple of weeks ago! More news about the collection will come soon!

Did you know that since 2022 Babybell is part of the collection of Pluijm Ballooning? We already made some great memories together during the last season and were able to show Babybel again to the audience on some balloonfestivals! If you want to follow the adventures of Babybell please follow also PluijmBallooning! For now Babybel is retired from flying but still able to give a good static show on your festival! If you are interested don’t hesitate to contact us for more information!

Sinds Januari 2024 is Team For Old Balloons een onderdeel van Pluijm Ballooning! Onze Special Shapes zijn nog steeds beschikbaar voor static displays op festivals! Voor meer informatie neem vrijblijvend contact met ons op via [email protected]

Trots om eindelijk de uitbreiding van onze vloot te kunnen presenteren! Zodra het weer gaat mee werken zal je ons in de lucht kunnen gaan zien met Lukas (D-OLUG, Cameron Z-120) met Murr (D-OLLE, Schroeder G34/24) en onze Voetbal (OE-RNF, Ultra Magic F-25 Football).

Met deze uitbreiding kunnen we 2-4 passagiers meenemen op onze avonturen en met de voetbal zullen we deel gaan nemen aan diverse Ballonfestivals! Wil je ook met ons op avontuur in de lucht? Neem dan vrijblijvend contact met ons op via [email protected]

Daarnaast hebben we ook nog diverse Special Shapes in ons bezit zoals Mr. Cool (Babybell), de Oriëntexpress en Brandenburgertor die niet meer de lucht in mogen maar nog wel recht gezet gaan worden op diverse festivals. Mocht u interesse hebben om een van deze ballonnen op u festival uit te nodigen? Ook daarvoor kunt u mailen naar [email protected]

Na ruim 15 jaar is het voorbij, Bram stop met Team For Old Balloons! Vandaag heb ik de collectie overgedragen aan Gerard van der Pluijm! De ballonnen blijven gewoon behouden en zullen nog regelmatig op evenementen te zien zijn. Ook de naam blijft en af en toe zal ik ook nog Gerard blijven helpen tijdens evenementen! Maar de verantwoordelijkheid draag ik af. Ik wil zowiezo iedereen bedanken voor afgelopen jaren waar ik mee samen heb gewerkt en voor het vertrouwen dat ik heb gekregen met het team!

After 15 years is it over, Bram van der Sluis is retired from Team For Old Balloons! Today the collection is handed over to Gerard van der Pluijm! The Balloons stay heritage and will be seen frequently at festivals! The name will stay and I will be part of the crew to help Gerard! The responsibility is gone now. I want to thank everybody for the trust in me and the team for the years we worked together.
