Because of Balloon Fiesta (October 2nd - 10th), if you are coming from out of town, we suggest you book a hotel room and airline tickets as soon as you can. Rooms in Albuquerque fill up fast during this fiesta, and the Albuquerque airport will see more traffic as well. Each daily event can draw more than 100,000 people from around the world!
