If you haven’t experienced attending a hot air balloon fiesta, make sure you mark this on your calendar and get your tickets early on!
The 20th Philippine International Hot Air Balloon Fiesta is happening on February 11-14, 2016 in Clark, Pampanga!
During this four-day fiesta, there will be exhibitions of different aviation disciplines, including aerobatics, skydiving, paragliding, remote control aircraft, and kite flying. Hot air balloons from the Philippines and other countries will fly high in the early morning, and illuminate the evenings.
More than just a spectator event, the Philippine International Hot Air Balloon Fiesta is a gathering of aviators from the Philippines and the world.
What began as a passion project has now evolved into the longest-running sports aviation event in Asia. The fiesta’s longtime objective is to instill discipline in participating young pilots so they can develop into safe aviators, as well as to impart a spirit volunteerism to the whole community.
The fiesta is an opportunity to share and exchange cultures and traditions with visiting pilots from all over the world. They are given a taste of Filipino hospitality and the fiesta spirit. We hope that their beautiful experience becomes the best advertising for Philippine tourism. We also encourage the visiting pilots to be contributors to chosen beneficiaries of the foundation.
By creating aviation awareness, educating the young about flying machines and encouraging people to work from the heart and do things with passion, we will strive to bring back the Philippine aviation industry’s good standing in the international community.

Expensive ng VIP tickets. I went there several years ago and ang init nga lang but we had fun.
Every year, I’d plan to attend this but di natutuloy. This year I won’t plan, baka matuloy na.
I want to try the hot air balloon. It’s in my bucket list. Gotta convince my roommate (my husband, btw) to take us there this year. 🙂 thanks for sharing, mommy. 🙂
Matagal na matagal ko na gusto pumunta dito.. kaso laging wrong timing.. sana this year pupunta na talaga kame kaso I’m giving birth soon! haha
Oh wow, ang mahal pala talaga! As in 5 digits! Is that per head? We’ve always wanted to take the kids here, but I think we may have to rethink it and plan because they’re going to want to ride.
This is one event my boys will surely enjoy and love. Every year, i write a copy of this event for a client but without experiencing it myself. I just hope husband would find time to bring us there this time.
Excellent post! I’ve been a fan of the balloon shows since I was 5! My mom and I watch it on TV, Bear Brand pa noon ang sponsor. Pero never have I once experienced it myself. Glad to know they’re still holding one! And it seems bigger this year!
Been dying to go here, thanks for the very informative post! Saving it for a future travel to Pampanga soon!

My husband and I went here six years ago. You have to catch the hot air balloons in the early morning as they prepare to ascend in the sky. Ang laki ng itinaas ng tickets! If you’re going, make sure to be at the site early in the morning para mas sulit! Thanks for sharing!
I find the tickets expensive but I’m sure they’re worth it. I’ve wanted to attend this festival for so long, I hope I get the chance!
its alwaysbeen my dream to try this, maybe ill treat hubby for valentines 🙂
Tickets are a bit on the pricey side. Wanted to attend this year pa naman sana but I guess we will have to postpone for now since we already have a travel schedules on march.
My hubby and I once went on a hot air balloon date. Wish we could go again!
This looks like a fun-filled event! Will ask hubby if we could come! Thanks for sharing!
Sayang, wala pa ang husband ko at di makaabot. This is awesome.
