Balloons took to the sky Thursday afternoon during the simultaneous ascension of the Havasu Balloon Festival and Fair. Balloon master Gary Moore gave the go-ahead, and the pilots inflated their balloons and soared over Lake Havasu.

After the mass ascent, another group of pilots participated in the “Glowin' on the River” night glow.

Here are some photos of Thursday's Havasu Balloon Festival and Fairmouth Ascension and Night Glow.
