Albuquerque's Balloon fiesta is an event that will exceed any expectation that you already have... the number of balloons, the KINDS of balloons, they way, due to our unique air currents, that they can fly away and come back to the same place, grabbing prizes of tall poles, dropping sacks onto targets, and don't forget, ton's of people, food, and more. It is an event you will never regret!
Our Balloon festival is about the 2nd week of October....actually I claim they through the whole thing in honor of my birthday!
