Albq Balloon Festival

Has anyone been? Is it worth traveling to Albq to see?

Thanks!

Re: Albq Balloon Festival

  • Living in ABQ, it's hard not to miss the Balloon Fiesta - the hundreds of ballons in the sky are not somehting you see everyday.

    I LOVE Balloon Fiesta and definitely think it's worth visiting. It runs a whole week and you have lots of different activities - mass assentions, special shapes assentions, the gas baloon challenge, glowdeo, glows, etc. And since the events are early morning and in the evening you have the whole day to sightsee, relax, go shopping, go hiking, take a day trip to Santa Fe, etc. The BEST breakfast burritos are on the field in the morning. And there is an energy on the field for the mass assentions. Just being on the field, talking to the crew & pilots, etc.
  • I really like going to the balloon fiesta, we go almost every year.  Last year we took a ride in one of the balloons, which I highly recommend.  Otherwise my favorite event is the balloon glow, it is fun to see all the pilots firing and lighting up the balloons.

  • The balloon glow will always be my favorite, but I love the Balloon Fiesta. You cannot see these anywhere else in such a big group, it really is worth it.
  • It is wonderful!!!  So much fun!!!  I would say yes come see it and do some sightseeing!!
  • I think it is worth it.  It is an amazing sight to see that many hot air balloons in one place.  Definitely worth traveling for.
