The 18th Annual GLOW to benefit Children’s Smile Center will be held Friday, June 21, 2024, beginning at approximately 8:45 pm at the Finley River Park in downtown Ozark inside the grounds of the Sertoma Duck Race Festival and is free to the public.

Several hot air balloons will inflate just after dark, providing an amazing light display against the night sky. Balloons are tethered to the ground and do not take flight so attendees can enjoy a 60 to 90 minute light show, pending weather and wind speeds. All attendees have the opportunity to see the very large balloons close up, visit with the pilots and get in the basket to help keep the balloons inflated.

The 18th Annual GLOW is part of the two-day Sertoma Duck Race Festival June 21-22, with several activities taking place besides the GLOW on Friday evening, including live music in an entertainment area, food and drink booths, small business vendor booths, and a kids’ zone with various carnival-type attractions for families to enjoy.
