Philippine International Hot Air Balloon Fiesta was founded
by former Tourism Secretary Mina Gabor along with some aviation partisans after
three years of the tormenting results of the Mt. Pinatubo's last eruption
(1991). Their goals are to help the local economy to start up and encourage the
fighting spirit of the Central Luzon region.
However, by 1996 Gabor requested
Captain Joy Roa of Aid Ads Inc. (the only licensed balloon pilot in the Philippines)
to be in charge and take over the organization of the event. From that moment
on, Philippine International Hot Air Balloon Fiesta is also known as “A Weekend
of Everything that Flies.”

cars and/or by air.
