Event Details
"Frank McCrory" Hot Air Balloon Glow
As darkness falls upon the park, the hot air balloons will inflate and stand up for about an hour. They will light up the field with their propane burners while you and your family visit with the pilots and see the balloons up close.
In 2022, the balloon glow was renamed in memory of Frank McCrory. Frank was a long-time pilot in Southern Indiana and Louisville area and also helped coordinate the balloon glow for many years.
WEATHER PERMITTING
Balloons require no rain or thunderstorms in the area. Winds must be less than 10mph.
