EVENT DESCRIPTION

The Balloon Festival at Wildside Winery is one of our most anticipated events of the year. Each fall, guests gather in the vineyard to enjoy wine, live music, local vendors, and the unforgettable experience of hot air balloons rising at sunset.

This event draws a large, family-friendly crowd throughout the afternoon and evening. Guests are encouraged to arrive early, explore vendor offerings, enjoy live music, and settle in for balloon rides later in the day.
