Set amid Warren County's rolling hills at 1601 N Jefferson Way in Indianola, Iowa, National Balloon Classic Launch Field anchors Iowa's signature hot air balloon celebration. The expansive grounds host the National Balloon Classic each summer, drawing pilots and fans for sunrise ascensions, evening competition flights, glow nights that paint the sky, and fireworks on select dates. Between mass launches and special shape sightings, the field blends small-town hospitality with a sweeping, color-drenched spectacle.
The experience is relaxed and photogenic. Expect open-lawn viewing with wide sightlines, room to spread out, and a family-friendly vibe. Many sessions add live music, kids activities, and plenty of concessions, from local food trucks to classic festival fare. Arrive early for parking and preflight entertainment, and keep in mind that balloon operations are always weather and wind dependent.
