This premiere Fall weekend features two of southeast Oklahoma's most exciting events, the Poteau Balloon Fest, Oklahoma’s longest running balloon festival and the Robber's Cave State Park Fall Foliage Cruise Car Show.

Located just minutes from our “Wi-Camp-A-Lotta” campsites, the Poteau Balloon Fest, is an annual community celebration featuring hot air balloons, tethered balloon rides and glows, a mud pit race, arts and crafts booths, games, carnival rides and much more. Each evening, balloons line up for an exciting balloon glow as the hot air balloons perform via burns, flickers and the wave.

Just a short 50 minutes away from “Wi-Camp-A-Lotta,” and set amidst the spectacular scenery and beautiful fall foliage of Wilburton’s Robbers Cave State Park, the annual Robbers Cave Fall Festival invites visitors to enjoy an array of outdoor events and seasonal activities. Grab a sweet caramel apple or a heaping bag of kettle corn and wander through the event grounds searching for handmade arts and crafts, live entertainment and amusement rides for the kids. Don’t miss the Fall Foliage Cruise held on Saturday, October 21 and be rewarded with over 500 vintage hot rods, custom trucks and classic cars on display.
