Tether Rides
Saturday 2pm – 4pm
Sunday 2pm – 4pm
Tether rides are free!
A tethered ride is when the balloon lifts off the ground, hovers 20-30 feet above the ground for several minutes, but does not launch and fly away. Experience the feeling of flight. Grab your camera and hop in the basket of your favorite balloon for an amazing experience!
