Balloons Over Anderson is a beautiful annual event that takes place at the Anderson Civic Center Launch Field in September. Prepare to see 25 colorful hot air balloons rise into the Anderson sky. Traditionally, there are around five scheduled flights throughout the weekend.

Another highlight of the festival is a magical balloon glow, usually held on Saturday night between 5 pm and 9 pm. The balloon glow makes for a particularly charming atmosphere and perfect evening snapshots.

Besides balloons, the celebration features a variety of food and retail vendors and lots of fun activities for the whole family. Stay tuned for the latest updates on the event's official Facebook (see External Resources below).
