Our Mission
The Pahrump Hot Air Rally in the Valley is dedicated to reviving a cherished tradition while creating a vibrant festival that unites our community. Through breathtaking balloon displays, live entertainment, local food and culture, and family-friendly activities, we bring people together to celebrate love, adventure, and hometown pride. By partnering with Pahrump’s non-profits and local organizations, the Rally not only fills the skies with color but also helps strengthen and support the community we call home.
The Pahrump Hot Air Rally in the Valley takes flight February 13–15, 2026, at Petrack Park in the heart of Pahrump, Nevada. This three-day festival fills the skies with breathtaking morning launches, dazzling evening balloon glows, and unforgettable moments that bring families, friends, and visitors together.
The Hot Air Rally in the Valley is more than an event—it’s the revival of a beloved Pahrump tradition. After years of quiet skies, we are proud to bring back the magic, the color, and the community spirit of hot air ballooning to our town.
Beyond the balloons, the Rally offers something for everyone: live music, food and craft vendors, a wine tasting garden, Valentine’s Day–themed games, and activities for kids. With thousands of spectators expected, it’s a celebration of love, adventure, and community pride right here in the valley.
Join us this Valentine’s weekend and experience why “Love is in the Air this February!”
