The skies of AlUla were magically filled with colorful hot air balloons for ten days in this celebration of the AlUla Skies Festival. With sunrise flights, tethered flights, and a successful attempt for the Guinness World Records™ title for the World’s Largest Hot Air Balloon Glow Show, there was something for everyone!
We brought the child-like fun and fantasy of hot air balloons to AlUla. From their bright colors to the way they serenely float across the sky, we gazed up in awe. This 10-day event showcased 150 hot air balloons in free flying flights, tethered balloon flights, and a nightly mesmerizing Glow Show. With live music, food trucks, and more, the atmosphere was perfect at the Hot Air Balloon Village!
