The Space Coast Hot Air Balloon Festival will launch March 20 and 21 at Space Coast Daily Park in Viera. The event runs from 5 p.m. to 11 p.m. each night at 5775 Stadium Parkway. Organizers say the festival will include balloon rides, laser shows and the popular Balloon Glow, where hot air balloons light up the evening sky.
Tickets for the two-day event range from $10 to $45 and can be purchased online at Freshtix.com. The festival is open to the public with no age restrictions. Admission includes access to all activities during the event window. The park’s location near major roads makes it accessible for visitors from across Brevard County.
The Balloon Glow, scheduled for each evening, is expected to draw large crowds. Attendees can watch balloons ascend and illuminate the night sky. Organizers emphasize that the event is family-friendly and designed for people of all ages. The laser shows will take place on the main field near the park’s entrance.
Space Coast Daily Park has hosted similar events before, but this year’s festival marks the first time the venue will feature a full weekend of hot air balloon activities. Local businesses near the park report increased interest in event-related parking and nearby dining options. Tickets are available now at Freshtix.com with limited availability for the Balloon Glow sessions.
