An adventure as wide as the western skies
For sheer drama, spectacle and spirit, nothing can match the sight of these brightly colored airships soaring skyward at dawn. With Fantasy and Creative World, you’ll be right in the center of the air show action — balloon glows and mass ascensions. You’ll also have close access to the Landing & Competition field where Hands-On Action takes place. As a backdrop, we’ll also introduce the distinctive people, culture, and cuisine of the American Southwest. In Albuquerque you’ll mix and mingle with descendants of Native American and Spanish settlers, enjoy their crafts and artwork, sample hearty food, and walk the narrow picturesque streets of Santa Fe. Join us for a week of front row access to the greatest Hot Air Balloon Show in the world.
