The Great Mississippi Balloon Race

Since 1987 the Mississippi State Society Daughters of the American Revolution has partnered with the Historic Natchez Foundation to produce the Natchez Balloon Festival, the largest and most successful festival in Southwest Mississippi.  The festival site is located on the parklike grounds of Rosalie in the heart of historic downtown Natchez.  In addition to spectacular views of the Mississippi River, the festival includes hot-air balloon flights, an evening balloon glow, live music, fireworks, arts and crafts booths, and carnival rides.   The Natchez Balloon Festival always takes place on the third weekend of October.
