Overview

• The final day's Drone Light Show started at 5:45 a.m., with traffic backups reported on Alameda Boulevard and officials advising early arrivals for the morning session.
• KOAT’s meteorologist forecast about a 30% chance of rain and warned that fog could halt flying and prompt a ground-only static display.
• Fiesta leaders say three scheduled events remained heading into the weekend—two mass ascensions and one glow—and tickets were reset for attendees on no-launch days.
• Saturday saw no mass ascensions, and flight decisions continue to be led by Balloonmeister Henry Rosenbaum in coordination with weather teams, FAA oversight and launch directors known as zebras.
• After parking filled outside the park Friday morning, organizers urged visitors to use park-and-ride services booked online and the on-site bike valet.
