About This Event
This is the main event! The hot air balloon activities of the Alabama Jubilee Hot Air Balloon Classic consist of four flight and event timeslots, the first is early Saturday morning (6:00am - 8:00am) and the second is late-afternoon Saturday (5:00pm - 8:00pm); then again in the morning and evening on Sunday.
The mornings are reserved for aircraft competition tasks between pilots and their crews (sometimes called 'races'...though this is no speed contest). Evenings consist of half of the balloons flying from the field and half of the balloons staying on the Jubilee field tethering and glowing.
Tethered rides are at the discretion of each pilot and are FREE. Paid flights are not offered during the event.
