Are you ready to be part of the biggest, most
photographed event in the world? Then bring your tours to Albuquerque
for the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta®. Each year over 500 
hot
air balloons will fly over our beautiful city and will attract over one
million spectator visits. The Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta
makes the Balloon Fiesta easy and fun for you and your passengers. For
an all-inclusive price, you will receive the following: motorcoach
parking on the Balloon Fiesta field, entrance to the event and access to
the Chasers Club Hospitality Tent. Your passengers are given the VIP
treatment. The tent is heated for comfort and refreshments are served.
Don't delay, it's not too late to make arrangements to attend the year's
most spectacular event.
When putting together your Albuquerque tour keep in mind the
morning balloon events end at approximately 10 am and the evening events
begin at 6:30 pm which leaves plenty of time to see all there is to see
in and around the city.
