Balloon Fiesta 2022

The famous Balloon fiesta is October 1-9 in Albuquerque, NM. This is something we did not anticipate for the weekend of our wedding so Albuquerque will be busy! We recommend people plan to try and go Sunday morning before leaving! Note that this is a sunrise even so it will be a very early morning for you to see it, but well worth the trip!
