2023 FESTIVAL SCHEDULE

See a Kaleidoscope of colorful hot-air balloons and special shapes on the launch field.

Hot-air balloon launches, displays, glows and tethered rides may be restricted due to adverse weather conditions or wind speeds that exceed safety levels. Hot-air balloons are ONLY in the Park during the scheduled balloon displays.

If in the unlikely event the Festival is suspended or cancelled due to inclement weather, city, state, national, or local health concerns/restrictions, force majeure or other causes beyond Festival control there will be no refunds or a rescheduled date.
