The City of Kyle canceled the Pie in the Sky Hot Air Balloon Festival as a safety measure in response to an increase of reported coronavirus cases.
“COVID-19 has impacted nearly every piece of event planning from staffing and volunteers to availability of vendors and supplies,” a city press release read. “City leadership has also kept a close eye on local COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations and ultimately wanted to avoid contributing to an already strained healthcare system.”
Vendors and ticket purchasers will be refunded. The city looks forward to its next scheduled Pie in the Sky Festival in 2022.
