About Saratoga Balloon & Craft Festival

At the Saratoga Balloon & Craft Festival, ticket holders not only browse and buy the crafts of more than 125 local artists, but soar in the sky in the basket of a colorful hot-air balloon. Sky captains stand at the ready to launch 20 hot-air balloons into the atmosphere, taking guests on high-flying tethered rides. Back on land, adults sip wine and browse among rows of pottery and fine jewelry, while kids play games, paint their faces, and try their hand at musical instruments.
