Plano Balloon Festival - Festival Facts  

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I bring my pet?
We strongly discourage people from bringing pets.  Pets become very irritated by the balloons,  they do not like the sound the balloon burners make.

Can I bring a cooler?
We do not prohibit coolers; however, we do strongly discourage people from bringing them.  Our mission is to provide nonprofit agencies an opportunity to raise funds and awareness for their programs and services. Several of our food vendors are nonprofit agencies.

What is appropriate to wear?
The festival takes place outside so it can be HOT - dress accordingly.  Wear comfortable shoes and don't forget your sunscreen.

Can I bring blankets and/or chairs to the Festival?
Absolutely, we encourage attendees to bring their own blankets and chairs. The sloped viewing area is grass, so a blanket is great for sitting on to view the balloon launch field.

A compact flashlight might be helpful when walking to and from your vehicle.
