What we are

The Quincy Valley Hot Air Balloon Festival started in 2008 and is the best small town hot air balloon event in the Pacific Northwest. The pilots that have participated since our first festival have commented on what a beautiful area this is. Not only is Quincy a great town but the beauty and the open space makes this area a great place to fly. This event will continue to grow in popularity and this is great for business and tourism.

Sunrise Launches are Saturday and Sunday, September 10th & 11th at sunrise (this is an amazing photo opportunity)

All launches are from Twin Firs Turf and are weather permitting.
