First time visiting this venue for the Great Smoky Mountains Hot Air Balloon Festival, and it was nice! The event was well staffed: everyone was friendly, helpful, and worked efficiently. The grounds were clean and well maintained.

We purchased our tickets online before noon the same day, which helped us save a few dollars on top of also using the lot across the street for parking. We didn’t purchase balloon ride tickets, but they seemed very popular. If that’s on your list, I’d recommend buying in advance because the lines were very long.

There were plenty of other activities for children, plus lots of local vendors with handmade items. We especially enjoyed trying some local beers and the fried twisted potatoes; absolutely delicious!

Overall, a well-run event and a great time.
