UFO Festival for an Out of this World Experience

UFO Capital of the World - Roswell, New Mexico hosts UFO Festival

July 30 - July 2, 2023

Did you know that 30 to 50 percent of the world’s population believe that we are not alone in the universe?  They believe that UFOs (Unidentified Flying Objects) are extraterrestrial and that other life forms exist beyond what we know here on earth.  

Some people report that they have seen UFOs in the sky while others say they have actually had interchanges with aliens from worlds unknown.  At this point in time, we have no real confirmation that UFOs or alien forms of life exist.

That said, rumors and legends say that a UFO crashed in Roswell, New Mexico in 1947.  A rancher discovered many mysterious objects that were not identifiable.  Although the U.S. military said this debris was a result of a secret project many people continued to embrace the idea of flying saucers and alien existence.   Hundreds of people visit the Roswell site each year to make their own determination.

This year Roswell will host a UFO Festival in our very own galaxy.  There will be talks by UFOlogists, music, sci-fi movies, a Night Sky Watch (maybe you will see a flying saucer), laser shows and you can even dress up as your favorite extraterrestrial for the costume contest.

Motels/Hotels fill up fast for this event. If you don’t have room in your spaceship to sleep you might consider booking your place to crash at one of these motels/hotels:

Roswell Inn - Breakfast Included

La Quinta Inn and Suites - free breakfast, pool
