Hot Air Balloon Rides
Would you like to fly 90 feet in the air? Festival goers can get the grand view of the park and the festival in a hot air balloon. The hot air balloon from Free Spirit Balloons features a gondola basket that is able to accommodate five to six people per ride. Keith Mills will be piloting the balloon. Rides will begin at approximately 5:30 p.m. and will continue until 8:30 p.m. The cost per person is $20. Although the balloon will be in the air for about three hours, it will be on display at the park all day for those attending to view.
