This Hot Air Balloon event is held every third weekend in August and is charity event run by the Highland Village Lions Club with help from the Lewisville Lions Club and The City of Highland Village.

Balloon action starts just before sunrise around 6am and sunset around 6pm. The early morning is prime time for Hot Air Balloons because the air is cool and calm. And we have pancakes cooking that will make the morning even better. So bring your lawn chair or a blanket and enjoy breakfast while watching the Hot Air Balloons do their thing. Activities last all day. Live music, carnival rides, arts & craft exhibits, car bash, food, beer and wine. Raffle drawing for prizes including a Hot Air Balloon Ride. Local businesses and sponsors have information booths and exhibits.

Admission is free but parking is a $5 donation. All proceeds go to Lions Club Charities. There will also be collection boxes for eyeglasses, sunglasses, lenses, frames (adult/children), eyeglass cases and old cell phones for soldiers.
