The International Balloon Festival of Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu is the biggest gathering of balloons in Canada. Now, with over 360,000 visitors, the event's popularity has risen steadily throughout the years and employs a strategy based on three essential elements: the enchantment of hot air balloon flights and night glows, free animation for the whole family, and major shows nightly. There are 125 hot air balloons, about twenty of which are special shapes, nearly 150 shows, and a huge site that hosts an incredible variety of animation activities.
