Media Credentials for Special Coverage of Carolina BalloonFest


Please describe your media affiliation and project, below. Our Media Team will review applications and respond via Email for final focus details prior to approving media access. Upon approval, a media kit will be mailed to your place of business. 

Our Media Credentials Packet may be granted to media representatives willing to spotlight Carolina BalloonFest prior and during festival weekend. Post festival projects will be considered. 

About the Media Credentials Packet

- One Reserved Parking Tag

- One 3-Day Festival Media Pass

- Friday AM Media Flight; limited spaces. Based on your media project for Carolina BalloonFest, a flight may be possible with a participating pilot. This flight should not be expected. Your project and demographic reach will also be factored into a media flight reservation.

- As a reminder, many pilots book hot air balloon flights throughout the weekend at $250 each person... your media affiliation may choose to guarantee a flight during the festival by reserving a paid flight with a participating pilot. See our Pilots & Hot Air Balloons page to make payment and flight arrangements direct with a participating pilot. 

Carolina BalloonFest Media Credential Application

    If you are interested in a Friday AM Media Flight, we ask that you provide your weight because this is essential in the pilots' calculation for ascension.

Rain or Shine... Carolina BalloonFest is open October 15-17, 2021!  
Hot Air Balloon Flights are scheduled twice daily; early morning & late afternoon. All ballooning activities including static display, tethered rides and balloon flights are weather-dependent.  The decision to inflate hot air balloons is made just prior to the scheduled ballooning activity.  Please note that due to the popularity of our festival, our admissions booths will close when we reach maximum capacity. This is a decision out of our control and made by local law enforcement.  Tickets are non-refundable. National Balloon Rally Charities donates a portion of our festival proceeds to other local nonprofits and surrounding community agencies.
