Who’s ready for a jam-packed calendar filled with fun in the coming months? A lot of annual events were canceled last year due to the pandemic. However, some of those events are planning to return in 2021. Pennsylvania’s Lancaster Balloon Festival, for example, promises this year’s event will be bigger and better than ever.
Start counting down the days until the return of the Lancaster Balloon Festival, set for September 17-19, 2021 in Bird-in-Hand.

Certainly the star of the weekend, the hot air balloons will be showcased in the Balloon Mass Ascension, each evening at 6 p.m., and a Balloon Glow at 8:30 p.m. on Friday and Saturday. Fireworks light up the sky after the glow on Saturday evening.

You can also book a tethered or a group balloon ride for a unique adventure. Accessible balloons will also be available.

Plan to visit during the day, too, to enjoy some of the other festivities. Kiddos can jump in the bounce house and meet reptiles while the whole family can find their way out of a five-acre corn maze.

Bring a hearty appetite, too, because the menu features a food truck festival and an Amish market, the latter of which will include Amish-made foods and other products.
