Central Field, Forest Park
free
I cannot wait for the annual Great Forest Park Balloon Glow tonight. It is by far my favorite event to take place in St. Louis and I look forward to it with much anticipation every year. This year 70 balloonists will inflate and their balloons across Central Field, lighting them up in unison to the sound of a horn set to go off every 15 minutes. Standing amidst the billowing, bright synthetic fabric, illuminated by bursts of fire you have the opportunity to talk with the pilots about how they discovered ballooning and what fuels their love of the sport. I would recommend taking the MetroLink downtown as parking can be a nightmare. If you can't make the Glow, the next best thing might be the Balloon Race that follows on Saturday morning at the same location.
