Case description
On 11 September 2010 at 17:30, several people in Antibes (06) watched about 10 bright white points drift slowly through the sky for 10 minutes without sound. A witness photograph immediately suggested balloons.
GEIPAN's internet search found a local newspaper report of a fashion show south-southwest of the observation site. Contacted by GEIPAN, its organizer confirmed that the show ended with a balloon release around 17:30. Light south-southwest wind carried them over the beach where the witnesses were. The summary describes them as advertising balloons. GEIPAN classifies the case A: observation of balloons.
