Join the Colorful Celebration and Sky High Adventures this Weekend

The 51st annual Adirondack Balloon Festival returned to Warren County last night, bringing vibrant colors and soaring spirits to the skies. Running daily through Sunday, September 22, this beloved event promises a weekend filled with excitement as up to 200 hot air balloons take to the air, captivating spectators with their stunning displays. From early morning launches to evening glows, attendees can experience the magic of ballooning while enjoying activities, including live music, craft vendors, and delicious food options.

Adding a unique twist to this year’s festivities, Stewart's Shops has introduced a special ice cream flavor called “Kaleidoscope of Colors.” This delightful treat, inspired by the festival’s vibrant atmosphere, features a blend of colorful swirls and fruity flavors that are sure to be a hit with attendees of all ages. Available at Stewart's locations throughout Washington, Warren, Saratoga, and Rutland counties until September 29, this limited-edition ice cream is the perfect way to cool down while enjoying the festivities.

As the balloons ascend into the crisp autumn sky, families and friends can gather to create lasting memories. Don’t miss the chance to witness the breathtaking launches and partake in the joyful atmosphere that defines this long-standing tradition in Warren County.
