It's almost that time again!

Good food, good music, and good times make up the annual Balloons, Tunes and BBQ Festival.

Coordinators are expecting a crowd of more than 30,000 people over four days.

Country star's like Chuck Wicks and The Farm are both planning to perform this year.

The festival's main sponsor U.S. Bank is using the event to help kids in need.

"For the first time this year, we are going to help some underprivileged children. On Thursday night, 'Kids' Night', we're going to sponsor 250 kids that have been assisted by United Way agencies," says U.S. Bank Regional President, Craig Browning.

Browning says without assistance, these kids would not get an opportunity to take part in the festival.

Balloons, Tunes, and BBQ will be September 6-9 at the Bowling Green- Warren County Regional Airport.
