Now on its 23rd or shall we say… 24th if last year's PIHABF was pushed through. But things happened… and the 2019 occasion needed to take the back seat.
 |
| The 23rd Philippine International Hot Air Balloon Fiesta |
When Is the 23rd PIHABF Happening?
It will be on March 6, 7, and 8 2020. Mark you calendars! Gates will open at 4:00AM | Events Starts at 5:30AM | Fiesta Grounds will close at 9:30PM
Where Is the 23rd PIHABF Happening?
The usual place for the fiesta is at the Clark Freeport Zone. However, the Clark Airport had become busy recently as it is now accepting flights to and from the country. To ensure the safety of the participants and spectators, this year's fiesta will be held in San Lazaro Leisure Park, Carmona, Cavite.

If you are planning to have a career in Aviation, there will be talk about that in the Fiesta. Visit the PIHABF Website for more details. The seminar fees are already included if you are a Business or First Class ticket holder.
