Hudson Valley Hot Air Balloon Festival
The Hudson Valley festival’s 2026 programme was based at Tymor Park in LaGrangeville, with balloon sessions and evening entertainment.
The organiser advertised five ascensions across 4–6 September 2026, with up to 120 balloon flights in total. That figure counts flights across the programme, not 120 different balloons. The venue address is Tymor Park, 249 Duncan Road, LaGrangeville.
For 2026, tickets were online only: $13.95 for a morning, $26.95 for an evening or $39.95 for the weekend. Passenger flights and tethered rides were separate purchases. These are archived edition prices, not current offers for a future festival.
The 2026 transport plan used Vail Farm School parking and a shuttle for Saturday and Sunday evenings, with different arrangements for Friday and mornings. Accessible parking was at Tymor Park. Check a new edition’s instructions before using those routes. Ballooning is weather dependent, and the organiser’s admission terms distinguish a cancelled flight from cancellation of the whole event. No 2027 dates were confirmed here.
