The One Of A Kind Festival You Won’t Find Anywhere But Montana

There’s a lot to love about Montana summers. When the weather warms up, we enjoy so many outdoor hikes, events and festivals. And every July, Montanans gather in Billings for the amazing Big Sky International Balloon Rendezvous.

The Big Sky International Balloon Rendezvous is a nonprofit organization to maintain the excitement of hot air ballooning in the Billings area.

As long as weather and other safety conditions permit, some lucky guests will be able to ride in a hot air balloon. Details are usually announced a few days before the festivals.
