Lottery Registration Information
The Rally Application process will begin in January 2025
After the Application process closes we will randomly pick attendees by lottery. Anyone who does not make our initial attendance list from the lottery will be put on a waiting list in the order picked by the random lottery.
When we get cancellations, we will notify those on the waiting list and you will have limited time to confirm your attendance – for those whom we are not able to get a site for the 2025 rally, we will do our best to move your application over to the next year's event. Please note that if you are notified and do not respond, you are dropped from the waitlist.
Overview of the Process:
All 2024 Applicants who were not selected in the Lottery for the 2024 Event were placed on the waitlist for 2025. If you are on the waitlist you will receive an email in early November 2024 to canvas you on your intent to attend or not attend the 2025 Event.
Once we have secured the sites for the event and know the final number of sites we will be allotted and the cost of attending the 2025 event, we will first fill sites from the 2024 applicants who did not get selected in the lottery and were placed on the waitlist for 2025.
Those on the waitlist from 2024 will need secure their attendance for 2025 by Registering and Paying the event Fee. The Registration and Payment Form will be provided to you via a link in an email before the end of the year 2024.
If there are any sites remaining, an Attendance Application Form will be made available on the Balloon Fiesta National Airstream Rally Event Detail Page in January 2025. The Attendance Application Form provides us with your WBCCI eligibility and contact information and places you on the Lottery list.
Any sites remaining after the waitlist assignments have been secured and finalized will be assigned from the randomized Lottery list drawing.
If you get selected from the Lottery list drawing, you will then be provided access to the Registration and Payment Form in order to secure your site at the 2025 Event.
