Watching hundreds of hot air balloons launch directly overhead from your RV site is the main draw at this city-managed lot in Corrales, set up as rally-style dry camping during the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta. Spots are limited and reservations are required, so securing a site takes planning. Each VIP West reservation includes two event tickets per session. Generator noise and fumes are part of the experience, with quiet hours running only from 10 p.m. to 4 a.m. Amenities include toilets, trash service, and cell service. Pets and alcohol are permitted. This lot makes sense for RV campers who want walkable access to the fiesta and don't mind a high-energy, crowd-heavy overnight. Those wanting to explore campgrounds around Corrales will find the Abuquerque International Balloon Fiesta South Lot nearby as an alternative during the event.
