LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- The Great BalloonFest Tribute has been postponed until Sunday around 6 p.m., the Kentucky Derby Festival (KDF) announced.

The BalloonFest, which includes more than a dozen hot air balloons, was originally planned for Saturday morning. It was postponed, however, due to "unfavorable winds," according to a news release from KDF. 

Festival officials hope the delay will allow for better flying conditions.

The Tribute is not open to spectators, but KDF encourages people to look for balloons in the sky. Those who spot a balloon and share a photos on social media with the hashtag #SpotABalloon will be entered to win a hot air balloon ride for two.
