Schedule of Events

Hot air balloons fly during the calmest parts of the day, typically around sunrise and sunset, when conditions are safest for flight. Weather, wind, and other atmospheric conditions are carefully evaluated before every launch.

REMINDER: All balloon activities are weather dependent and will take place only when conditions are safe and favorable.
