“Love is in the Air” for Valentine’s Day Weekend at the
Cathedral City Hot Air Balloon Festival

CATHEDRAL CITY, CA. – [February 7, 2015] The Cathedral City Hot Air Balloon Festival celebrates Valentine’s Day with “Love is in the Air” on Saturday, February 14 and Sunday, February 15, 2015 in Downtown Cathedral City at the new Festival Lawn.

The festival will bring nearly twenty hot air balloons from across the country to the Coachella Valley for tethered hot air balloon rides, hot air balloon weddings, and a free romantic balloon glow to music sponsored by Crush 103.9 and The Eagle 106.9 FM, weather permitting.

Fantasy Balloon Flights will offer tethered balloon rides Saturday and Sunday mornings beginning at 7:00 am. Attendees may purchase the rides for $25 for adults, $20 for kids ages 5 -12 years, and free for children aged 5 years and under with an adult ticket purchase.

Couples or groups of friends wanting to share a wonderful dining experience should get reservations now for the outdoor Sunset Wine Dinner on Saturday evening in Civic Center Plaza. They will enjoy paired wines to a 4-course chef prepared dinner, LIVE music, and the picturesque beauty of the sunset behind the inflation of colorful hot air balloons.

Saturday evening also provides great family entertainment including the free balloon glow to music from 6:30 pm to 7:15 pm and a free replay of Disney Pixar’s movie, “UP” at 7:30 pm in the new Festival Lawn. A VIP Viewing Section is available for the Balloon Glow for $10 and tickets are available online. Guests for the movie are also encouraged to bring their own chairs and blankets.

If a movie is not your passion, adults 21 and older may enjoy a beer and wine garden with live music in Civic Center Plaza from 7:30 pm to 9:30 pm with the sounds of some great local bands.
Other daytime festival activities include a Kid Zone with multiple bounce houses, face painters, and themed characters; a wedding singer competition, a Sunday pancake breakfast by Applebee’s, gourmet food trucks and outdoor shopping at the Theater Square Market.

The festival offers free admission and free general parking. Limited, VIP parking is available for $7.
