It takes a community to bring the Hot Air Jubilee to life — and we’re looking for volunteers to join the team for 2026!

From balloon crew and hospitality to kids activities, parking support, scoring, and more, there are so many ways to get involved behind the scenes of one of Jackson’s favorite summer traditions.

Whether you want to be right in the middle of the action or help create a great experience for guests and pilots, we’d love to have you on board.

📸 VOLUNTEER PHOTOGRAPHERS WANTED! (NOT AN APRIL FOOLS JOKE!) 📸

We're looking for passionate individuals to help us capture the magic of the upcoming Hot Air Jubilee (HAJ) and the BFA US Women's Nationals! New for 2026, we are offering an exclusive opportunity for photographers of ALL skill levels—from seasoned professionals to enthusiastic hobbyists looking to build their portfolio—to join our team.

Here is what you need to know about this unique exchange:

🎟️ EXCLUSIVE ACCESS: In exchange for your time and talent, selected photographers will receive a "behind-the-scenes" access pass for two people to the entire event!

🎈 CLOSER TO THE ACTION: This pass includes special access to the launch field and target locations, giving you a vantage point far closer to the balloons and action than the general public.

🚫 UNPAID VOLUNTEER: Please note that this is a non-financial compensation opportunity. Your "payment" is strictly provided via this unprecedented access, allowing you to capture unique, professional-grade shots for your own portfolio (beyond the required deliverables).

⚠️ 👇 PLEASE READ BEFORE APPLYING: 👇
Full requirements, safety rules, and deliverable expectations are detailed at the link. Please read carefully and apply today at the link!

Help us bring the 2027 Women's World Championships to Jackson!

✨ Why Jackson? Hear it from the pilots themselves.

“Jackson’s focus on women pilots has created something truly special—a space where women are genuinely celebrated, supported, and inspired.”
— Dawn McKenzie, 3-time U.S. Women’s National Championship competitor

From impeccably run competitions to welcoming landowners, beautiful flying terrain, and unmatched camaraderie, Jackson offers more than a venue—it offers a community.

We’re ready to bring the FAI Women’s Hot Air Balloon World Championships to a place that already champions women in flight.

Did you check out the aurora borealis tonight? I did my best with cranked settings and no tripod - and wow - what a stunner!!! Tonight was my first time being able to see the lights with the naked eye and not just through a phone or camera. Now to be more prepared for next time with a remote and a tripod! 🤣
