All other RIDE companies will be launching a minimum of five miles from Balloon Fiesta® Park. Rainbow has been doing flights year-round in Albuquerque for the past 26 years- and is celebrating its 10th year as Official Ride Operator. The flights are launched from Balloon Fiesta® Park during scheduled Balloon Fiesta® morning events.

Enjoy breathtaking views of the Sandia Mountains, the majestic Rio Grande River and valley, the City and over 600 other Hot Air Balloons. 
After your flight has landed, the balloon will be packed up and we will celebrate our flight with the traditional Champagne Toast and you will receive your commemorative official "Balloon Fiesta® Flight Certificate" and "Balloon Fiesta® Flight Pin". After returning to the park, you are free to explore the many exhibits and booths on the Balloon Fiesta® field.
