If Merlin made a New Mexico enchantment, this would be it
1996
Overview
If Merlin came along and lighted a giant candle under each of hundreds of enormous, brightly-colored globes, he might come close to creating the magic of balloon glow. A favorite with children, the balloon glow is equally appealing to the child in all of us. Scott Appleman, the originator of the balloon glow, explains how it all began. In 1987, as a balloon fiesta board member, he thought the time had come for a new event. He had seen small balloon glows, but had \"no idea what to expect\" in Albuquerque's first attempt at lighting tethered balloons. In honor of the state's 75th birthday that year, he arranged an aerial view of the number \"75.\" To fully enjoy the balloon glow, [Sam Hancock] recommends, arrive at the balloon park between 4 and 5 p.m. Food and shopping concessions will be open, and there will be an abundance of entertainment on the field, with performances of jazz, mariachi and country western music.
