ABOUT THE FESTIVAL

Held in conjunction with the World Balloon Convention (WBC), the Festival of Balloons is a fun, family event that exposes the public to amazing, never-before-seen balloon art created by artists from all over the world. The Festival offers a chance to view all of the pieces created for the WBC’s balloon art competitions. Attendees also experience magical balloon entertainers, as well as the opportunity to purchase balloon creations of their very own.

Please note that this public viewing is taking place ONLY on Sunday, March 25, from 11 a.m - 3:30 p.m. Prior to that, the general public will not be allowed to view the balloon art.

Due to the overwhelming turnout at the 2010 Festival of Balloons (also held at the Sheraton Dallas Hotel), we are now offering pre-paid online ticket sales in addition to pay-at-the-door. A small convenience fee applies to online sales; however, those who order in advance will receive priority admission and avoid long lines at the Festival.

  • Colossal balloon sculptures with some featuring animation, lighting, music, and special effects
  • Intricate, twisted balloon figures

WHAT TO BRING

  • Camera (there will be lots of great photo opportunities!)

TRANSPORTATION
