Lisle's Eyes to the Skies Hot Air Balloon Festival occupies the 110 ac (44,5 ha) Lisle Community Park for a few days in a row, turning this area into a huge family-friendly zone. You can watch the balloons soaring up in the sky both early in the morning and in the evening. What’s even more thrilling, you can experience a tethered balloon ride and remember Lisle’s hot air balloon festival for good.
In fact, everybody will find something for themselves. In addition to the center point of the festival—the hot air balloon show, Eyes to the Skies features a craft fair, food vendors, a children’s area, and nightly music on two stages to dance your socks off. The organizers revealed that some people come to Eyes to the Skies just to visit their favorite food vendors and enjoy mouth-watering dishes. So yeah, make sure you arrive with an appetite.
