This fair event invites guests to gather on the North Grounds for an evening hot air balloon flyout and glow, with a chance to enjoy a special walk-in photo experience inside a semi-inflated balloon before the flight. Guests are encouraged to bring chairs or a blanket for a more comfortable viewing experience.
The event is weather permitting, and times may change as needed. Updates will be shared on Facebook and through PA announcements. There will be no tethered hot air balloon rides this year. Gate admission to the Allen County Fair applies after 2 p.m. Tuesday through Friday and after noon on Saturday, with reduced admission on Sunday. Parking is free.
