Do you live within a 10-mile radius of Frankenmuth? If so and you would like to allow a Hot Air Balloon to land or launch from your property, please place a white sheet on the spot starting Friday early morning until Monday afternoon. Make sure your sheet can be seen from the air and when a Balloon Pilot sees it he knows you have given him permission to land. Thank You for welcoming the Hot Air Balloons to our community!

With the events spread out on over 25-acres of Bavarian Inn property, there will be plenty of space for guests and canines to enjoy themselves safely.
