Bird-in-Hand Hot Air Balloon Festival

We’re taking our favorite high-flying, family-friendly fun fall event to new heights!

We’re thrilled to partner with Balloon Shows USA to bring you an all-new balloon festival. Enjoy a weekend of spectacular hot air balloon glows and laser light shows, music, family activities, food trucks, craft vendors and more.

You’ll find lots to do in the afternoon and evening. Walk inside a hot air balloon or, weather permitting, ascend in a tethered balloon. Browse our retailers’ offerings. If you’re bringing little ones, take a wagon ride, visit our kids’ area, and let them burn off some energy in the bounce houses. Grab a bite to eat from our food trucks; each will offer a special bacon-themed dish in addition to its regular menu.

At 8:30, the lights come on and the fun kicks into high gear. Watch as massive tethered hot air balloons illuminate the night and state-of-the-art laser displays paint the sky with brilliant colors. It’s an unforgettable sight and an experience you won’t want to miss.

There will be:

• DJ entertainment (rather than live music)
• Tethered Rides $35 (no actual flights during this event)
• Vendors, Food Truck Festival (with bacon themed dishes), Hayrides
