Hot Air Balloon Rides!

Yes! You can take a balloon ride at the Teton Valley Balloon Rally. PLEASE READ the information below before requesting your balloon ride:

Hot air balloon rides at the 2024 Teton Valley Balloon Rally cost $410/person and are available to the public by reservation only two out of the four mornings of the Rally. This year, balloon rides will be available July 5-6, with a few options potentially available on other days. Requests for balloon ride reservations will be considered in the order they are received, and accommodated as availability allows. We cannot guarantee ride availability, or that your entire party will be able to ride in the same balloon.

We will confirm accommodated requests via email and provide a payable invoice for your deposit of $175/person. You will then have 72 hours to pay your deposit to lock in your reservation. If we are NOT able to accommodate your reservation request, we will communicate this via email and your name will be placed on a waitlist. Please note that if your day of choice is either Thursday, July 4 or Sunday, July 7, you are much more likely to be waitlisted. If you are waitlisted and a ride becomes available, we will contact you via email and send an invoice for your deposit. You will then have 72 hours to pay your deposit and confirm your reservation.

Once you have a ride reservation in place, there is a (1) week cancellation policy. Any cancellations received inside of (1) week from your scheduled flight will be charged in full at the time of cancellation. Hot air balloon passengers must be physically able to jump off a bench, cannot be pregnant, and cannot have certain pre-existing health conditions. Children must be at least 6 years old. All hot air balloon passengers will be required to sign a waiver of liability.

Confirmed hot air balloon passengers must arrive at the balloon field by 6:00AM on the morning of their scheduled flight.

If we cancel flights due to weather, we will do our best to reschedule. If we are unable to reschedule, we will refund your deposit. YOU MUST COME TO THE FIELD IN ORDER TO RECEIVE A REFUND IN THE EVENT OF FLIGHT CANCELLATION. Weather determinations are made at the balloon field on the morning of scheduled flights. No shows to balloon ride reservations will be charged in full whether or not we fly. Phone calls, emails, or text messages inquiring about weather determinations will not be answered the morning of your scheduled flight.
