WELCOME to the 12th Annual Havasu Balloon Festival & Fair in Lake Havasu City, AZ. Spectacular ascensions are scheduled morning and afternoon, to culminate with the most beautiful fantastic glows at night. All of our proceeds are donated back into the community through our 5 services clubs that work to bring you thrilling weekend of over 70 spectacular hot air balloons, and non-stop activities at Windsor Four. Morning ascensions begin at sunrise each day, weather pending. If the winds are the right direction, some balloons float over the London Bridge. Everyone can have a chance to stroll among the many balloons especially on the balloon field, where we have our "Shaped" balloons inflating on the field and staying tethered there for a 1/2 hour. Traffic:
With 30,000 - 50,000 attendees expected, please know that there will be some traffic on London Bridge Road and surrounding streets. Please allow time for travel in the Windsor Beach area. Our 3 day festival and fair is jam packed with tethered balloons that you can ride in, an Art Village, face painting, dog shows, great bands and entertainers on the main stage, paper balloon launching, a carnival, musical and theatrical groups, classic cars, remote control planes, untethered balloon rides, delicious food in the food court, and much more! Be sure to also check out Vendor Village. As the evening sun sets, a stunning photographic event will unfold called "Night Glow." Stay afterwards for more fabulous live entertainment on the main stage. The event will take place at the Windsor State Beach. Sometimes, you may see the balloons dip their baskets ever so lightly into Lake Havasu for what's called a 'Splash & Dash', a spectacular sight to see! All balloon flights are weather pending. Once the balloons are inflated and launched, spectators will witness a photographer's dream - an array of color and beauty. MARK YOUR CALENDARS FOR JANUARY 19-22
