Idaho's favorite hot air balloons returning in September: Spirit of Boise Balloon Classic

"Finally we have something we can look forward to. It's like a real Boise tradition," said John Moug and Angie Morales of "Moug and Angie in the morning."

We certainly do have something to look forward to.

The Spirit of Boise Balloon Classic is returning for its 30th year.

Mark your calendars.

Hot air balloons will begin lifting off from Ann Morrison Park on Sept. 2.

Organizers, including our friends at Townsquare Media's MIX 106 , are taking the health of the community seriously.

"We're working with the city and with the state and with the FAA and everyone is taking COVID-19 into consideration and we just want to make this the safest event possible," Moug and Angie said.

Once all meetings with city and health officials are complete, we'll update you on any adjustments.

CBS2, Cap-Ed Credit Union and Townsquare Media are proud sponsors of the event.

Throughout our coverage, we'll also be honoring founder Scott Spencer, who died earlier this year from cancer.
