One of the biggest ...fall events in Queensbury, NY.,
is the Adirondack 50th Balloon Festival!
Remember to keep your eyes out for the amazing event!
HISTORY
In the early 1970's Warren County’s tourism and publicity office was looking for an idea for an event which would bring visitors to the region after Labor Day. At that time, there were relatively few hot air balloons in the nation. One such balloonist, John Marsden from Manchester, VT shared photos of his balloon with some visionary Glens Falls residents, which included Walter Grishkot, and the Adirondack Balloon Festival was born shortly thereafter.
The early days of the Festival were held at Adirondack Community College, now known as SUNY Adirondack. As the event grew, a larger site was needed to accommodate the growing number of balloons and spectators. That new site was the Floyd Bennett Memorial Airport in Queensbury, NY, where the festival continues to be held today.

ADIRONDACK COMMUNITY COLLEGE, NOW SUNY ADIRONDACK, WAS THE SITE OF THE ORIGINAL
The festival is a not-for-profit organization, which is very rare for an event of its size and stature. Funding for the event is raised by volunteers and the event would not be possible without the tremendous community support we receive. For what will now be its 50th year in 2023, the event remains open to the public, free of charge.
Throughout the years, the event has drawn international exposure for the Glens Falls region with relationships being formed with cities like Saga, Japan and Gatineau, Quebec. Our event traditionally draws balloonists from across the United States but also internationally based pilots as well.
Today our event draws upwards of 100,000 people over 4 days. We have been named one of the Top 100 events in North America and have received accolades from the Weather Channel, Food Network and media coverage including numerous Associated Press articles as well as New York Times, Amtrak and Southwest Airlines.

After the death of founder Walter Grishkot in 2011, a foundation was set up in his memory to raise funds to promote interest in education in the sciences of aviation and aerospace. In the summer of 2021, the festival suffered a tremendous loss with the passing of Walter’s wife, Joan who was an integral part of the event.
