Apparently a former employee has made some incendiary personal comments this morning. THE FESTIVAL DOES NOT CONDONE HATE SPEECH IN ANY FORM. For over 40 years now, we have done nothing but provide a fun family experience where ALL PEOPLE are welcome equally.

@jacksonhinkle Apparently a former employee, who has not worked with the festival in more than a year, has made some incendiary personal comments. THE FESTIVAL DOES NOT CONDONE HATE SPEECH IN ANY FORM. Our festival provides a fun family experience where ALL PEOPLE are welcome.

@gradientlight_ @KeithWoodsYT we put up a post on our feed regarding this...

@everymanreport @RomanGor87 @kevomartin1 @berserk_sultan Putting up personal information of uninvolved parties on a thread like this is irresponsible. The subject comments were made personally by a former employee and in no way, reflect the views of the festival. The individuals pictured in your tweet have done no harm. Please remove.

@everymanreport @KeithWoodsYT FYI, Mr. Gorodetskiy has not worked with the festival for over a year and his personal opinions are not reflective of the views of the festival. Prior to dragging a 40 year-old, family festival which welcomes everyone equally into your exchanges, please do a bit more research.

Many spectacular moments were caught on camera from jaw-dropping hot air balloon ascensions and LIT live performances!

When you see the majesty of these hot-air balloons up close, you will understand why a mass ascension should be on everyone’s “bucket-list”! To the nearly 50,000 people who came out to see this special event on Sunday night to close out the festival, thank you! #njballoonfest
