Temecula Valley Balloon and Wine Festival is this Weekend

Saturday June 3, 2006
If you've never been to Temecula, just over the San Diego County border in Riverside County, to experience its wineries, then this weekend would make for a great introduction to the area. Why? Because it's the weekend of the Temecula Valley Balloon and Wine Festival at Lake Skinner. This event, held since 1984, attracts over 38,000 people, who come to be entertained by live music, sample wines from the area, eat food by local purveyors, and of course, watch the spectacle of dozens of colorful hot air balloons flying through the blue skies of the Temecula Valley. You can even ride a balloon for a fee. It's a great time to spend with family and friends. Check out the Temecula Valley Balloon and Wine Festival facts and details right here.
