Food vendors were very expensive. We spent a small fortune on drinks alone since you were not allowed to bring any food/drinks with you. Event was ok

Bought the VIP tickets which came with VIP parking. There are two separate VIP tickets. I bought the most expensive one, Blue Sky Club, which surprisingly isn’t the one you should get. The cheaper VIP, THE CHANDON VIP Sunrise Brunch, tickets give you free all you can eat breakfast. The one I got didn’t. They only launch the balloons at two times, morning and when it is almost sunset. We chose the morning one. Got there early and parked at the VIP section. Wanted to buy some breakfast and there wasn’t any at our VIP section. They give you a lanyard with your VIP pass so you can hang it around your neck. We went around asking the security guard where we could get breakfast because we saw them bringing food to another tent area. He said that we should have it free with our VIP pass. So we walked in and grabbed breakfast. No one stopped us. And we were not supposed to get breakfast. We brought it back to our VIP section and at it quickly and got rid of the evidence. LOL. Waited another few minutes and then they started inflating balloons. You don’t need to bring your own lawn chairs. They provided but they were wet in the morning. You should bring towels to wipe it down so you can sit on dry chairs. You can pay to ride which we didn’t. After watching the balloons we walked the air strip which was lined with vendors. Kind of like a flee market but not cheap. It is definitely something you need to do once.

It was good, a lot of entertainment for free, prices were a little expensive on basic food and drink.

Loved the experience! It was truly magical. The Kids enjoyed David the Human Cannonball, rhe carnival rides, and Watching the balloons. The only reason I took off a star was it was way way too pricey. the vendors were super expensive as well as the food vendors. The best part of any festival is the food but it was just unbelievablely pricey. Otherwise the event was great.

July 23 - 25, 2021
July 26-28
Launch is at 6:45, weather permitting yes.
Sort of... Maybe a 2 to 300 yards more or less from the parking. There are lots of attendees and cars with good weather. You do have other options. The balloon festival sets up remote parking (RVCC or corporate lots) and provides a shuttle to the entrance, if that's easier. You can also watch the weather forecast for 200 to 1000' AGL for wind (NOAA provides this type of forecast, ground level winds won't help😉). Then you can predict where to park and watch the balloons drift by. There are lots of places folks congregate around the area to balloon peep, North Branch park, Bridgewater parking lots... Some even pull of Rt 22 and 202 as they fly by. Police don't support this option, beware🤣😂
There are several events in the New Jersey area…now there’s one at tymori park union vale

No balloon festival this year. ☹️
They dont. They fly where the wind blows them to.
Good question. There was a light breeze this morning. So no balloons went up. It's a scam.
Hi Mercy! Thank you for contacting the QuickChek Balloon Festival! Tickets are $35 for Adults and $15 for Children ages 4-12. Children 3 and younger are free. We hope you enjoy all the Festival has to offer!
The balloons go pretty high in the air so I would say just look on the map and find a street that's within 100-ft radius
Yes! Chairs or blankets. No tents or umbrellas for the concert, but they are welcome for balloon launches
We bought our tickets online 30 dollars for adults general admission
The actual in-air time for a hot air balloon ride is approximately 20-40 minutes. Please see our festival website at balloonfestival.com.....gentle breezes and soft landings
The dates for the 2019 QuickChek NJ Festival of Ballooning are: July 26, July 27 and July 28.
I think $250
Yes you can although I don't know who you see to set that up and last I knew it was around 275.00
$35:00 at the gate + $10:00 for parking. It cost less if you get the tickets in advance at Quick Check
It depends where you are coming from. The festival is done for this year and you will have to wait till next year.
The best times are 6am to 6 pm
