Q. Are there admission costs for Hot Air Affair?
A. All of the balloon events are free as well as other spectator events like the torchlight parade, fireworks, kite flying and ice carving. Some things, like the smoosh board competition or the fundraiser prize drop are free to watch, but if you want to participate there are fees. There is a craft fair, souvenirs and food available for purchase.
