*The balloon schedule is dependent on both the weather and the decisions of the Event Director, Safety Officer and Pilots-in-Command. Fly-in & fly-out schedule and exact time of balloon launches may change because weather impacts flight decisions and safety. We appreciate your consideration of these important factors for all inflatable features of Carolina BalloonFest!
