Is it an all day thing or just morning take offs etc? What time is good to go tomorrow?

Morning starts at 6:00 a.m but the actual takeoff is closer to 6:45 or 7:00. I'd get there by 6:00 though if you want to watch them fill the balloons and get some good shots before the actually liftoff. Also, tonight and tomorrow night at 18:30 (6:30 p.m.) they are doing the Evening Glow. If that is like other events I have seen, the balloons will be filled and they pilots will use the burners to light them up. Makes for great images.
