The Temecula Valley Balloon and Wine Festival will wrap up Sunday in Winchester with performances by Scott McCreery and The English Beat.
The event — a tradition dating back to 1983 — is slated to start at 6 a.m. Sunday within the Lake Skinner Recreation Area, just east of Temecula. Performers are set to take the stage at noon.
The fest returned last year following a two-year hiatus stemming from the COVID public health lockdowns.
Saturday was dedicated to Country & Western, with Brad Paisley, George Shingleton and Sara Evans performing.
Friday night’s Pala Main Stage entertainment featured 80s icons REO Speedwagon, Night Ranger and John Waite.
Hourlong daytime hot air balloon rides were scheduled Sunday, organizers said.
All rides are subject to cancellation if the weather turns.
Roughly 100 vendors have been on hand, including a bevy of vintners providing samples of the Temecula Valley’s finest ports.
Some attendees may be under tents or in trailers at the Lake Skinner campground, but organizers noted that all of the camping space had been reserved.
There are also carnival rides, dancing and an array of adult beverages to enjoy.
Tickets run between $30 and $760, depending on what events a festival-goer intends to attend. Parking fees are separate from the price of admission.
All festival events will wrap up at 6 p.m. Sunday.
