37th Annual Balloon Fest Has Success in Fairview Park

The 37th Annual Centralia Balloon Fest is officially in the books!

Special thanks to our organizers at the Greater Centralia Chamber of Commerce, our Steering Committee (the pink shirts in the park), our sponsors, hundreds of volunteers, and the City of Centralia. This event would not have been possible without them.

We worked tirelessly to plan this event at a new location in just a few months, thinking through every detail. Behind every decision was a group of people who care deeply about this community and this event. We felt the weight of this year, and there were some moments it was hard to see past it.

Your kind words and the conversations we had with so many of you this weekend meant more than you know. Seeing families enjoy the park, hearing how much you loved the new location, and watching everyone come together reminded us why we do this.

Thank you for showing up. Thank you for giving us a chance. And thank you for making the 37th Annual Centralia Balloon Fest one we’ll never forget.

Save the date: August 20-21-22, 2027!
