Take part in the fun and unforgettable activities. Don't miss out - dive into our event calendar below for all the details for this year's event!
Secure your spot early at the White Sands National Park - due to the high volume of visitors our recommended arrival time is 5:00am when lineups are allowed to begin.
Due to insurance restrictions - individual rides are not available for purchase. The only possibility to get a balloon ride, is to purchase a sponsorship.
To purchase a sponsorship for one of our balloon pilots and crews, please reach out by contacting us through our contact form located here - Click Me -
You can find a cozy spot to enjoy the sunrise and view the mesmerizing sight anywhere within the park. Feel free to walk and talk amongst the crowd of balloon pilots and crews! But please be courteous to our hot air balloons and do NOT step on or over any of the balloon fabric or equipment.
Chase crews are the ones who assist the pilot in the inflating and deflating of the hot air balloon for each flight, as well as keeping a close eye to meet them at their landing spot! For those interested in being on a chase crew, please contact us by clicking here - Click Me -
Yes, we welcome animals to both of our events at both locations. For more White Sands National Park information Click Here.
