This rally is produced by the Albuquerque Aerostat Ascension Association (AAAA). Join us each February at Balloon Fiesta Park in Albuquerque,NM.
Scores of balloons, including competition racers and special shapes, fill the sky on this winter weekend. While this rally has a playful Valentine’s Day theme and is open to the public it is mainly put on to recognize the support ballooning receives from the multitude of balloon crew members in the area and to give back to the community by raising money for charity.

The main purpose of this event is to honor the pilot’s crews. Without a crew, a pilot would literally be lost! Shout out to all of the Chiefs and their team making this year's event possible.
