Kiwanis Indiana Balloon Fest

This two-day festival at West Boggs Park is packed with activities for families of all ages. You'll see hot air balloons launching into the sky, special-shaped balloons overhead, and a stunning night glow with fireworks. If your family wants hands-on fun, tethered balloon rides let kids experience the magic up close. The grounds also feature pony rides, bounce houses, kids' crafts and activities, live entertainment, food vendors, a swimming beach, mini golf, and even a Jeep show. Beyond the main attractions, there's something for everyone—a golf scramble for the grown-ups, a beer and wine garden for parents, and camping available if you want to make a full weekend of it. With so many activities happening across the park, you can easily spend both days exploring and enjoying everything the festival has to offer.
