Press Release -- Two Events, Two Weekends of Flight

Published: 04/26/2012

2 Hot Air Balloon Events + 2 Weekends = Hot Air Balloons Everywhere

Top Pilots will Compete in the Skies Over Monroe, Wisconsin

Monroe, Wisconsin – Monroe has long been known for award winning world-class cheeses, its historic Courthouse Square and rich Swiss heritage. And now Monroe is host to two hot air balloon events spanning two back-to-back weekends offering ample opportunities for spectators to delight in the iridescent balloons floating over the rolling countryside. And, depending on the weather, some of these visitors can also experience the sensation of flight from the basket of an airborne hot air balloon.

The U.S. Open National Championships will begin competition on Saturday, June 9 and will conclude the morning of Tuesday, June 12.
