Prepare To See These 45 Hot Air Balloons Over Boise’s Sky This Fall

If you can believe it--summer doesn't have much time left. Despite the fact that we're still experiencing 100-degree days, it's almost September! The best part of September? It ushers in one of Boise's most magical events: The Spirit of Boise Balloon Classic.

With the event kicking off in just weeks--we have a chance for you to prep and study up before the balloons take flight.

With another year of hot air balloon magic headed to Boise, here are the 45 hot air balloons that will be flying above the Boise skyline!

Which balloon do you want to see the most this year!? 

It doesn't matter where you look--when you see reading or marketing materials for Boise, Idaho they almost always include hot air balloons--and those shots are from this very event that really lives on year-round.

There is something magical about the Spirit of Boise Balloon Classic. During the week, there are early morning balloon launches that hundreds gather to watch--how often do you get to see something like that!? Then, on Friday evening, the iconic 'Night Glow' event offers an up close and personal view of the Spirit of Boise's balloons, inflating and lighting up from the ground, in the dark of night! It's amazing!

Here are the details for this year's event:

• September 2nd: Kids Day
• September 3rd: First Launch
• September 4th: Sponsor Day & Night Glow
• September 5th: Family Morning Launch
• September 6th: Great Launch
