Watkins Glen Balloon and Music Festival

The music was good, but I thought there would be more than just 2 balloon launches. The food vendors were ok, nothing special. Very lowkey event.

GOOD TIME NOT MANY BALOONS...

What a great event for the community. Looking forward to next years Hot Air Balloon Festival.

Umm, no ballons, understandable, high wind, safty first, was not informed on entry, had to ask, atmosphere flat, vendors to far away from stage, odd vibe, some vendors cash only, who caries cash these days, was informed all vendors took card/tap, not the case, oddly flat and boring, .

Very disappointed! I understand why the balloon rides weren’t able to happen. However, having to pay $32.00 to walk around and have basically food venders was not what we expected. Nothing indicated that it was a balloon festival..

I was kind of disappointed actually! Main reason I went on Sunday was for the music but would have been nice to see a hot air balloon! Also, would have liked to see more vendors. Scenery was beautiful though!

Music and Food was great. We were disappointed that on Sunday there were no hot air ballons, nor any notice that they wouldn't be back. I did call the company, and he wasn't clear on the phone if they would be back at the festival or not. I understand that the wind could be an issue, but it should be clearly stated that the balloon would not be back and we would have picked a different day to attend

I feel the weekend pass is not worth it. Saturday was enough. I really thought it would have been bigger than it was and way more balloons.

This was our first time ever being there. We had a wonderful time. Good food , great music , fantastic time. Looking forward to next year.

We had expected to see more than 2 balloons launched and 3 tethered balloons, but we still had a lot of fun checking out the vendor booths, eating, and listening to the live music. The two bands we heard were fantastic. Parking and staffing were very well organized. Thanks for a fun Saturday!
