Rainbow Ryders gives balloon rides daily and you can get magnificent views all year round. My favorite times are in the summer and fall.

Mass Accession. The last Saturday of the 2019 Fiesta there were around 600 hot air balloons scheduled to go up. Organized chaos is the best way to describe it.  Color, sounds, people everywhere.  It was great.
