Services Overview
Welcome to Hoist the Colours Ballooning! One of Hendricks county’s many attractions! Experience the thrill of a lifetime as we embark on an adventure flying over the towns, woods, and fields in and around Danville, Brownsburg, Plainfield, and Avon!
Inaugural Flight June 2018
Sight Seeing Flights
All our balloon flights are private rides. We can carry 3 passengers of up to 500 lbs of total combined passenger weight, on a 70 degree day. The weight restriction is due to the max gross lift the aircraft is capable of at a safe operating temperature.
Special Occasions
What is more romantic than surprising a loved one by “popping the question” hundreds of feet in the air during a morning sunrise or evening sunset.
