THE Natchez event of the fall season, the Great Mississippi River Balloon Race hosts some seventy colorful hot air balloons right on the heels of the Kodak International Balloon Festival in Albequerque, New Mexico.
The breathtaking sight of hot air balloons filling the air begins on Friday morning with a 7:30 liftoff that includes a bicycle race and media coverage of the event.
Friday night, balloons will light up the night in a balloon glow, follwed by a specatcular fireworks display on the Mississippi River.
Events continue throughout the weekend with regional foods and musical acts.
Make your plans to attend this year's Great Mississippi River Balloon Race early as rooms are hard to come by.

My husband and I enjoyed our dream wedding at Monmouth Plantation last spring, and we plan to enjoy another stay for the Great Mississippi River Balloon Race! Your accommodations & Southern hospitality are second to none. We look forward to our visit in October!
