Get Ready for Family Fun at the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta! The excitement is in the air! The much-anticipated ExxonMobil Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta® is just around the corner, so there’s still time to plan your unforgettable adventure. Imagine the stunning spectacle of hot air balloons filling the morning sky, followed by enchanting evening balloon glows—this event is unlike any other, and Albuquerque is eager to welcome you!
Circle your calendars for October 4-12, 2025, because the 53rd Balloon Fiesta is set to paint Albuquerque’s brilliant blue skies with color and wonder. Witness skilled pilots as they smoothly navigate and float high over Balloon Fiesta Park and the serene Rio Grande. This is the world’s largest and most prestigious international ballooning event, made even more special by the delightful October weather and a unique weather phenomenon known as the “Albuquerque Box.” This incredible combination of atmospheric conditions and geographical variety allows balloonists to have incredible control during their flights, enabling them to take off and land almost seamlessly from the same spot—a true treat for both pilots and spectators alike!
Join us in October 2025 at Balloon Fiesta Park, a sprawling 360-acre haven featuring a lush 100 acres of grassland bustling with breathtaking balloons and tasty concessions. At the 2024 event, 551 stunning hot air balloons representing 16 different countries took to the skies, while spirited guests explored 80 vendors along the main street! You might be surprised to hear that the now-famous breakfast burrito was popularized right here at Balloon Fiesta, becoming a staple grab-and-go feast for our energetic pilots!
While nothing can quite capture the magic of experiencing the Balloon Fiesta up close and personal, we understand that you might want to explore the city from a broader vantage point. That’s why we’ve curated a list of the best spots in Albuquerque to soak in the sight of these vibrant balloons! It’s impossible to talk about the top viewing locations without mentioning the event itself. There’s simply no comparison to the sheer thrill of watching these majestic balloons inflate all around you or witnessing them take flight—it's an atmospheric spectacle that leaves you breathless!
As you immerse yourself in this colorful celebration, make sure to visit the incredible Anderson Abruzzo International Balloon Museum. Here, you can elevate your Balloon Fiesta experience with a variety of exceptional viewing and dining options, including access to the museum’s observation decks. Imagine enjoying delicious treats while gazing out at the stunning panorama of 600 hot air balloons hovering above you!
Get ready to float away on an adventure of a lifetime while being surrounded by a kaleidoscope of colors in the sky. The Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta is more than an event; it’s an extraordinary experience that promises to soar to new heights!
