The 2016 National Balloon Classic is scheduled for Friday July 29th through Saturday August 6th. 
There are several changes to Balloon Parking for the 2016 year.
Gates are to be installed at the entrances to the parking field and will be closed late each morning.
- Rotary Members will be scheduled to arrive at 3:45 p.m. each day to open the gates, start selling tickets and directing traffic to the parking area. This system should make it easier to control parking at the beginning of each day.
- Gates to the Spectator Field will also open at 4 p.m. each day.
- Traffic will be allowed to enter the parking area through the South Gate from Highway 92 and through the North Gate for vehicles that arrive on 150th Avenue from the North. 150th Avenue will be closed between our South and North Gates.
- No Camping on the field at night. (This is new)
Ticket Prices will be $5.00 per person ages SIX (6) and over.
There are no car-load prices this year.
Schedule:
NiteGlows: Sunday / Wednesday / 2nd-Friday
Fireworks: Both Saturdays
We will need two or three people willing to stay and take tickets until about 9:15 p.m. on these nights.
There are LIVE bands on the stage EVERY night of the classic, making admission very reasonable.

Concrete work was completed on Wednesday morning. A work schedule is being prepared to complete the building in time for the Classic. Please set time aside to help when ever possible.
