Thousands of people enjoyed a beautiful day at the 2023 Carolina BalloonFest on Saturday. Strong winds prevented the mass ascension, but the crowd enjoyed a day of live music, festival food, the Kids Zone, N.C. Wine and Craft Beer Garden, and the Evening Balloon Glow. The festival concludes Sunday. For the event schedule, visit HERE.

Any pictures of the enormous lines of people waiting for hours to get back to their cars?
Or the ones who never got to get in because they were told to drive from one parking lot to another numerous times and never allowed to park at either??
Waited 3 hours to get back to our car. Standing in line, not moving. After 48 years somebody should know what is going on. Never again.
I’m certain you were not late for anything at all. Next time stay home. Everything will be perfect for you there!
What do you expect with large crowds. We are so spoiled here in America. Would you rather wait in a long line for or after a fun event, or wonder when a rocket is going to hit your city? Get over it and relax a bit aye.
