Plano Balloon Festival 2007 This Weekend!

The 2007 Plano Balloon Festival gets underway this weekend. Watch 75 bright, clever and creative balloons fill the air each day (twice on Saturday and Sunday).

There will also be live music and other entertainment, and an abundance of food and fun things for kids and the family at the Kids Fun Zone.
