Usually held at SUNBEAU Valley Farm in mid-September, Ravenna Balloon A-Fair costs $5 per person and $5 per car parking spot, and tickets are to be bought at the door. And if you decide to bring along your children under 12 years old, you won’t have to pay any additional fees for their admission.

Ravenna A-Fair has a bunch of fun activities in store for you. Besides flying in a balloon, you’ll be able to engage in arts and crafts, take a ride in a helicopter, and enjoy delicious snacks and drinks. Visitors will also listen to famous DJs’ performances, attend a one-of-a-kind jeep show, and participate in one of the festival’s numerous balloon demonstrations.

But the very first day of the festival begins with a children's parade in Ravenna's downtown. On the same day, you'll also see a breathtaking balloon glow (at dusk) and a live disco performance. The next day of the event promises a lot of vendor entertainment and street parties, known as the Grand Parade–also held in downtown. And only after that, it's time to head to Sunbeau Valley Farm for more fun, like a jeep show, a live concert, and many others things previously mentioned.
