Tips:

Plan to arrive early. On Saturday morning a triathlon is done in the canyon and into the valley. Expect traffic delays in the canyon and from the 4-way stop in Liberty up to the festival field.

Dress in layers. The temperature on the field can be cold in the morning and then hot as the sun rises. Bring a lightweight jacket, sun screen, lip balm, sunglasses and water.

No smoking is allowed on the field at any time.

Bring cash because many of the booths and vendors do not accept debit and credit cards.

Balloonists love to have their balloons photographed, but be careful not to step on the envelope, ropes or other equipment.

Bring extra memory cards and charged batteries for your digital camera.
