Location: Albuquerque, NM (Balloon Fiesta Park)

While you're enjoying your stroll along Main St. at the Balloon Fiesta, you might just discover more than a delicious breakfast burrito. In fact, you might find yourself the star of a show.

This year Balloon Fiesta welcomes three entertainers in particular who are masters of their craft.

Juggler and comedy stunt guy, Chris Enright, makes his first ever appearance at this year's Balloon Fiesta. Enright will be performing across from the Official Merchandise tent south of the main stage area.

His 25-minute show is a sure delight to audiences. The show includes comedy, juggling stunts and zany antics which families will enjoy.

Also making a first appearance at this year's Balloon Fiesta is Steve "Haywire" Cody from Denver, CO. Cody couldn't decide whether to be a magician or juggler growing up, so he settled on both. What developed was a show that lives up to its name, "The Haywire! Show."

Haywire will be appearing the second weekend of the Fiesta.

Finally, Balloon Fiesta visitors can once again enjoy magician Robert Smith. Smith will be making his 6th consecutive appearance at the event. During his first appearance in 2004, Smith joined Steve Stucker from KOB-TV on air and did a magic trick by getting engaged to his now wife, Sara.

Smith's show features 20-minutes of outrageous antics, comedy and amazing magic. You might just end up being the star of the show as Smith's goal is to use as many audience volunteers as possible.

Come enjoy the fun at the 2009 Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta.
