We have been to other Balloon Festivals and really enjoyed them so I was excited that this one was happening right here in Arizona. Well long story short they didn't even do the balloons because \"unfortunately we can't control mother nature.\" What the heck? It was an absolutely beautiful Arizona desert night. The weather didn't get anymore perfect. The rest of the event comprised a few blow up toys for the kiddos, about a dozen food trucks and a single music stage. \nThe band was great, but felt bad for people who bought VIP tickets and had to sit behind the stage while general admission got to sit in front. lol"^^ .
