DARN! Salt River Fields just announced on their facebook page that they are canceling this event. 🙁 If you already bought your tickets, I suggest contacting Groupon to request a refund. Such a bummer!

To our valued participants and patrons of the Spooktacular Hot Air Balloon Festival:⠀⠀After careful consideration, we have made the decision to cancel this year’s event, scheduled for October 29-30, 2021, and will instead pivot the event to the fall of 2022.⠀⠀It is our goal and passion to bring the best balloon event possible to the Valley, and after extensive research and planning, we have determined that postponing the 2021 event is the best course of action for the event, and the community.  Our team is also currently collaborating on something new for spring 2022 event that will support the vision, promise, and quality that we want to bring to the surrounding Phoenix area.⠀⠀It is with your support that we are motivated to take our events and festivals to new heights – stay tuned!

Head over here to score tickets to the Balloon Spooktacular (coming to Salt River Fields at Talking Stick October 29th and 30th) for $10/each (try promo code SAVE to possibly save an extra $2/ticket). You can expect 20 hot air balloons, trick or treating, live music, a family-friendly haunted trail, and more. This is an excellent excuse for the kids to get another night out of their Halloween costumes (and if they love hot air balloons, they’ll be really excited to see them up close)! It’s nice to see events that went away during Covid coming back!

Enjoy!
