Sand Hollow Resort will host its second annual SkyFest Feb. 8, 9, and 10. The weekend event will feature hot air balloons from throughout the west, a glow party, drone races, and a variety of entertaining activities. There is no entrance fee, and guests at the resort can use code “Sky2019” to book a room (or accommodations) for as low as $69.99.
“We are excited to host our second annual SkyFest and expect it to be bigger and better than last year,” stated general manager Adam Jasperson.
The weekend kicks off Feb. 8, at 7 p.m. with a glow party on the driving range. The balloons will remain on the ground and light up at dusk for a spectacular view. Food and beverages will be available for purchase from visiting food trucks, or guests can make reservations at The Grille for a sit-down meal.
Saturday morning, the balloons will launch at 7:30 a.m. followed by a pancake breakfast benefiting Hurricane High School’s Grad Night. Enjoy a wide variety of air-related events and activities throughout the morning, including drone races, remote-control aircraft demos, and helicopters on display.
“We look forward to welcoming balloon enthusiasts from across the country,” stated Robert Roche, co-owner of Sand Hollow Resort. “Sand Hollow is one of Utah’s most scenic properties and provides a spectacular backdrop for this event.”
