The Louisville skyline will host a celebration of gigantic proportions on September 24 - 26, 2010 for the 12th anniversary of the Bluegrass Balloon Festival, presented by Meijer.
The balloons and their pilots have always been the stars of the festival, and this year additional balloon events will add more lift to the excitement. In addition to the traditional morning races and evening glows, this year's festival will feature afternoon races and tethered rides to give the crowds an experience like never before - come early to ensure your ride! The fun continues with great music, good food, and the Five Star and BP Fireworks Spectacular scheduled to light up the sky on both Friday and Saturday nights!
For a dazzling look at the 70+ balloons, come to Bowman Field on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday mornings to watch the balloons fill and ascend into the sky in one of the largest hot air balloon races in the nation. Arrive on the field by 7:00 AM to see the sky instantly fill with a rainbow of colors as pilots compete for cash prizes.
In addition to balloons, you can play all day in the Kids' Fun Zone, or enter a team in the volleyball or cornhole tournaments.
