About Us - RedBalloon Days

RedBalloon is Australia and New Zealand's leading online gift retailer of experiences.

Imagine watching the sun rise from a hot air balloon, learning to sail or feeling the adrenalin rush of a race car driver. With these and more than 2,500 other unique experiences, RedBalloon gives you the chance to give someone something they’ve always wanted to do.
We believe that gifts should be amazing and memorable, reflecting the uniqueness of each individual. And because life is the sum of our experiences, not our belongings, we know there's nothing more amazing and memorable than a RedBalloon experience.

We have found experiences to be equally powerful when used in the Corporate space, so we also offer a comprehensive range of Corporate Incentive, Reward and Recognition Programs.

Life at RedBalloon can be described in many ways, and 'ordinary' is definitely not one of them!

Words like 'amusing', 'dynamic' and 'animated' come off the tongue when describing the fast-paced work environment.

Life at RedBalloon comes with a good dose of humour, themed Friday drinks, and the odd ski trip, so can also be described as being pretty fun.

And to revoke our favourite enticement...shark diving, anyone?
