SUMMARY:Abiquiu Studio Tour 2026 - 10 to 12 October
DESCRIPTION:Saturday 10 to Monday 12 October 2026. The one weekend of the
  year when the village's artists throw open their studios and the Chama 
 River Valley becomes a self-guided driving tour. You drive between the s
 tops at your own pace\, meet the artists who work here\, and buy from th
 em directly rather than through a gallery. Most studios are open on the 
 Saturday and Sunday\, with a smaller number open on the Monday.

SUMMARY:Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta 2026 - 3 to 11 October
DESCRIPTION:Saturday 3 to Sunday 11 October 2026. The largest balloon gat
 hering in the world: hundreds of balloons lifting off at dawn from Ballo
 on Fiesta Park\, with evening sessions that are ticketed separately. The
  dawn launches need an early start and the park is roughly two and a hal
 f to three hours from Abiquiu - a long day\, but the state's headline Oc
 tober spectacle.

 s - national park and forest offices included - close while most shops a
 nd restaurants in Abiquiu\, Española and Santa Fe stay open. It is the s
 econd Monday of October\, which is exactly why the studio tour and the b
 alloon fiesta both finish on this weekend: expect the busiest roads of t
 he month.
