This colorful hot air balloon festival is coming to New Jersey this month
There are so many different festivals taking place in New Jersey this time of year, and there's one that's quickly approaching that's a must-visit.
Join In On The Fun This Month
The Warren County Hot Air Balloons, Fun and Games Festival in Washington, New Jersey, is a day filled with colorful hot air balloons, food trucks, local crafters and vendors, games, a bounce house, and plenty of fun for the entire family.

I've never been in a hot air balloon, but I've always thought it would be such an incredible experience! Maybe once or twice I've seen one in the sky where I live, but when my in-laws lived up in Hunterdon County, I remember them calling us one day to tell us how a hot air balloon had just landed right on their property!

They were inside and completely shocked when they looked out the window, but wow, what an unforgettable sight!
Hot Air Balloon Rides And Family Fun Coming Soon
So, if you're interested in going up in a hot air balloon, this festival is the place to be!
The launch is expected around 5:15 pm, and if you're not quite ready for a full balloon ride, you can also try a tethered balloon ride, where you can go up and down while remaining connected to the ground.
