Taken from the Festival's website (visit link)

This summer’s event is expected to have up to 65 hot-air balloons.

The morning launches will take place throughout the countryside and from the parking areas at the W.K. Kellogg Airport.
The evening launches will either be fly-ins to the airport with various targets that the balloonists will be trying to hit with a marker they throw or the balloonists will launch from the field and fly to a designated target out in the countryside.
The event grounds will be filled with an array of:

Excellent eateries
Novelty/Flea Market Vendors
Fun shopping
Military wearables
Collector planes
Logo merchandise and more.
Crafters will display homemade/hand decorated items from jewelry to puppets so plan for shopping and great food!
