The yearly spectacular and colorful Clark Hot Air Balloon
Fiesta is once again gracing the aviation field of the Clark Freeport on Feb. 9 - 12, 2012. Spectators can look forward to a larger and more varied 4-day event as at least nine countries are expected to
participate according to Noemi Garcia, the head of the CDC Tourism and
Promotions Office. This means, more balloons from a larger number of
countries than in 2011! In addition, the Balloon Fiesta 2012 is said to include
additional exhibitions and more varied aerial demonstrations. Below is the schedule of activities.
