This is a MUST SEE EVENT!! All balloon events are held weather permitting. In the afternoon, when the balloons don't fly, the festival has musical entertainment, travel exhibits, kite flying and aircraft displays.
It is one of the top 100 events in the country according to event goers of the American Bus Association! It is the ONLY reason to get up at 5AM, so if you are looking for something GREAT to do this weekend... this is it.
Come to Lake George and Glens Falls...Enjoy the best event of the year! |
