Colorado Springs Labor Day Lift Off continues a 49 year tradition of the largest hot air balloon event in Colorado Springs. This historical event has been one of the top ten largest hot air balloon events in the United States and will draw more than 200,000 attendees to Memorial Park over the holiday weekend of August 30 - September 1. There are multiple opportunities to volunteer at Labor Day Lift Off with 5 sessions available (Sat/Sun/Mon AM and Sat/Sun PM). Consistent volunteer experience from session to session is invaluable to the event. To encourage multi-session volunteering, we launched the Labor Day Lift Off Pathfinders Volunteer Program!
