Colorado Springs Hot Air Balloon Competition

The Colorado Springs Labor Day Lift Off (formerly the Colorado Balloon Classic) is a hot air balloon festival in Colorado Springs. Held each Labor Day weekend since 1977, it takes place near Prospect Lake in Memorial Park. It is the "largest and the longest continuously running hot air balloon festival in the Rocky Mountain region as well as the State of Colorado."[1][2][3]

The 2016 show in September 2016 marked its fortieth anniversary.[4][5]
