Concessions and Artisans Application
The Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta® offers Concessionaires and Artisans the unique opportunity to sell to a captive, on-site audience of hundreds of thousands of people. Our guests are typically upscale consumers, and we strive to select the highest quality Concessions and Artisans to provide them with the level of goods and services they expect.
