What a fantastic weekend!
Our Carolina BalloonFest 40th Anniversary 3-day festival was filled with many moments to remember!
Pilots, families, friends and hot air balloon enthusiasts reunited to honor and celebrate our notable pioneers who took flight more than 40 years ago -- their adventurous spirit gives us the wonderous gift of sailing in the winds today!
|  | From 1974 to 2013 they gathered each year in our community to catch the winds and share their passion for flight with each other. Their traditon continues... National Balloon Rally Charities thanks everyone who contributed their time and support to the success of our event, Carolina BalloonFest, which enables us to continue our charitable mission! |
Carolina BalloonFest 2014 will be a fun-filled weekend of family entertainment with outstanding attractions. Bring lawn chairs and blankets (pets & coolers are not permitted) to bask in the beautiful Carolina autumn weather as the backdrop to all the sights & sounds of colorful hot air balloons.
