The Howell Area Chamber of Commerce is excited to host the 39th Annual Michigan Challenge Balloonfest on June 28, 29, and 30th, 2024, a community event enjoyed by families throughout the state for decades.

The Michigan Challenge Balloonfest is one of the premier summertime activities in Michigan, offering entertainment for the entire family. This community event has activities planned for everyone – from carnival rides, kid attractions, fireworks, and the always-popular balloon launches, fly-ins, and evening glow. Many events and attractions are planned this year, and we look forward to seeing you there!
