Join us for the 2nd Annual Paris Balloon and Music Festival 5k run/walk on September 13, 2025. We're excited to build on the success of our inaugural event in 2024 which proved to be an exciting addition to the overall festival. The run will start and end next to the Paris Pump Track and will be a fast out and back course on the Trail de Paris. 

Early bird pricing is available through August 15th so register now before the price goes up!

Runners registered by the end of the day on September 1st are guaranteed the shirt size of their selection. After we place our order to the printing company, we can only guess what sizes runners might sign up for. If you love fun race t-shirts - sign up now and have yours guaranteed! 

Friday and Saturday Nights The Festival is at the Lamar County Fairgrounds

Saturday morning The 5K Run and the Balloon Launch is at the Love Civic Center
