When the nation's largest balloon race says "dawn patrol is worth the wake" they really mean it. Arise with the birds, put on a pot of coffee, grab a comfy blanket and head out to the most beautiful sunrise event of your life.
With 150,000 other spectators, feast your eyes on balloons of all shapes and colors, and be prepared to be enchanted. It's no surprise The Balloon Race has raked in numerous awards over the years, such as ‘Best Special Event in Reno' and ‘Best Special Event in Northern Nevada.'
With three days of events, there are plenty of opportunities to be a kid again, and here's our number one tip: do your best to attend the Glow Show. Yes, we know it's early at 5:00 AM, but you won't regret it!
And if you really want to go all-out, enter to win The Great Reno Balloon Race Amateur Photo Contest! Prizes to be announced soon.
