The Alabama Jubilee Hot Air Balloon Classic is May 24-25! The Alabama Jubilee Hot Air Balloon Classic begins bright and early Saturday, May 24, at 6:30am, with the hare and hound balloon race: one balloon flies off and the others try to follow to see which pilot can get closest to a target put down by the hare balloon.

Additional activities on Saturday include a hands-on historical tool area, antique tractor show, an antique and classic auto expo (from 8:30am-3pm); and a tractor parade (10am). A pedal tractor park for kids 6 years old and under, along with tractor games, opens at 11am. Beginning at 5:30, some balloons will lift off for an evening flight and the Balloon Glow at 8:15pm is a must see as towering balloons of all colors light up Point Mallard Park.

Another round of friendly competition between the hot-air balloon pilots is scheduled on Sunday, May 25 with the Lynn Layton Key Grab Balloon Race. Balloons should start flying into the Jubilee field starting about 7am in order to grab a ring from the top of a tall pole. A secondary goal is to drop a bean-bag marker at the center of an 'X' that is also placed at the pole. Another fun flight is set to launch at 5:30pm and free tethered rides will be available starting at 6:30pm. The two-day event concludes with a fireworks show at 9:30pm.

The popular Decatur Art Guild arts and crafts show will be open Saturday from 7am-6pm and again Sunday 9am-6pm at the soccer fields and there will be live music in the late afternoon and evening both days. All activities take place inside Point Mallard Park in Decatur. For more information and a schedule of events, visit www.alabamajubilee.net.
