The two day festival at Town Fields attracted visitors of all ages who were treated to a stunning night glow, with a string of balloons lit up in time to music.
Earlier, visitors had enjoyed rides as the balloons floated gracefully through the sunset skies over Doncaster.
But there was a brief moment of drama when two of the balloons landed on Stainforth Road near Barnby Dun, briefly blocking the carriageway in both directions.
