If there s one New Jersey event to make a road trip for, it s this one.
It s the largest hot air balloon and music festival in North America. The Festival of Ballooning is returning to Solberg Airport in Reddington July 23-25, presented this year by New Jersey Lottery.

The whole ballooning experience, however, generally takes between 2 and 3 hours. This includes the setup, flight, pack up, and return trip to the festival.
