A long-standing Rocky Mountain tradition, the three-day event features 30+ festive balloons launching into the air early on Saturday and Sunday morning. Come early for the Night Glow on Friday evening, where balloon pilots will have the giant balloons lit up under the night sky. The 50th anniversary features more balloons than ever before, with 40 balloons, making the Snowmass event the biggest mountain balloon festival in the state.
