Howell Balloon Fest 2024 en Michigan

Howell Balloon Fest o Michigan Challenge Balloonfest es un evento anual de la comunidad, que reúne a gente de toda la región para comprar, comer y disfrutar de las vistas de los globos. Cuenta con cuatro vuelos con unos 24 pilotos durante el fin de semana, con lanzamientos en toda la zona de Howell. Los globos vuelan sobre el centro de Howell, transformando el cielo en un lienzo con puntos coloridos.

The highlights of the fest are definitely the hot air balloon launches and balloon glows. Thousands of people come to Howell every year to witness the spectacular display of vibrant balloons floating in the air over the venue. The balloon launches take place from 6:30 am to 8 pm and from 6:30 pm to 8 pm on June 29th and June 30th, but on June 28th, you'll have a chance to see the display only in the evening.

The balloon glow is another spectacular sight that is worth attending this event for. Dozens of balloons are inflated and kept closer to the ground. And as the night falls, it's as if the sky is filled with giant sky lanterns. This magical spectacle takes place on Saturday, June 29th, after the evening balloon launch at dark.

Howell Balloon Fest offers a plethora of other opportunities for amusement, apart from its main centerpiece. If you're looking for a thrill, hop on one of 20 rides in the Wade Shows Carnival at the festival's grounds. Try your luck at Cobra Coaster, Hero Zone, and Sizzler, which are just a few of the many Big Show Amusements attractions. Participation in the carnival requires tickets, with each ride costing about two to five tickets. A single ticket costs $1.25, but you can buy a Daily Armband—an all-day pass to all rides.

For some family-friendly fun, consider stopping by the Family Fun Tent, where your little ones can play to their hearts' content. Agility courses, craft workshops, and shows will make your child's day memorable. You'll also have an opportunity to watch a Car Show, an exhibit of unique cars. It takes place on June 29th from 10 am to 3 pm.

La Cámara de Comercio del Área de Howell añadió recientemente un nuevo giro interesante: incluyeron vídeos en vivo y entrevistas piloto in situ. La gente de todo el mundo sería capaz de ver los globos inflaciones, despegues y aterrizajes en Michiganchallenge.com.

The festival takes place at Howell High School, and the festivities begin on June 28th at 2 pm and last until 11 pm after the fireworks display. On June 29th, you'll have a chance to attend the festival from the early morning at 6:30 am and stay until 11 pm to witness the balloon glow. The last day of the event begins even earlier, at 6 am and lasts until 9 pm, finishing off with balloon launch.

Además del Michigan Challenge Balloonfest, hay diferentes actividades en el centro, como el Torneo de Corn Howell, el día de los niños en el jardín, el entretenimiento en el escenario en el Howell Summit Garden, los vendedores de camiones de alimentos, y muchos más. Hace de los globos de aire caliente de Howell uno de los eventos más buscados para la familia.
