General Information

Open to the public, the 27.5-acre Balloon Park prototypes the kinds of spaces, programs, and features that will become part of the future Orange County Great Park. Signature events like concerts and dances, workshops, outdoor movies, and more, bring activity to the space year-round—a commitment to the public that the Orange County Great Park remains open during its development.

Anchored by the Great Park Balloon, this area of the Western Sector Park Development Plan has been developed with both permanent and temporary features that reflect a dedication towards historical preservation and sustainable practices—historic Hangar 244, the Walkable Timeline, Kids Rock, and the Farm + Food Lab are all key programmatic features in the Balloon Park; recycled runway concrete, a bio-swale, low water turf, solar lighting, citrus plantings, and native shade trees, are incorporated throughout the landscape’s design.
