Join us for two fun days of antique biplanes, a barnstorming airshow and hot air balloons. No other venue like this in the world!! You can fly in a WWII aircraft while the hot air balloons launch from our field in the Virgnia Countryside. Historic! Romantic! Breathtaking!!

Weather is the driving force in the two possible launches each day, right after sunrise and before sunset. The winds have to be calm for the safety of our balloonists and guests.

Balloon rides will be available for purchase in advance. Please check the comments below for contact info. Individual balloonists set their prices based on balloon capacity and expenses.

Rides may be available at the venue but usually sell out in advance, so don’t wait! Make your Balloon Ride plans BEFORE you come so you won’t be disappointed.

Admission covers the whole day! Morning launch, Airshow @ 1:30pm, afternoon launch.

Between the morning launch and airshow there will be balloon demos and airplane rides for purchase. Please plan for down time with your kiddos. We have lots of space for frisbee, horseshoes, corn hole so bring your toys and have fun.

Available on site:
Gift shop with Flying Circus and Aviation themed items
Fifi’s Snack Bar with Hamburgers, hot dogs, nachos, ice cream, and drinks. Additional food vendors will be attending as well.
