Every year, we create a special collection of official Event Items that capture the spirit of that year’s Balloon Fiesta. The collection includes a jacket, ball cap, T-shirt and new this year a Spirit Jersey®. The best part? All four are available starting today!
This year’s retail Event Jacket is a dark green, medium-weight jacket with a detachable hood. The inside of the hood is a vibrant orange, creating a striking complement to the green exterior. The Balloon Fiesta logo appears on the left chest, while the back features a full embroidered depiction of The Scenic Route theme. It’s one of the most spectacular color combinations we’ve ever created, and we hope you agree.
For those times when you want to be comfortable, classy, and show off your support for Balloon Fiesta, add the Event Spirit Jersey to your wardrobe. It's the latest in our collaboration with Spirit Jerse® It's a light green with The Scenic Route logo on the front, and a large colorful Balloon Fiesta across the back.
Complete the look with the matching Event Ball Cap. It features the same rich green color, with The Scenic Route embroidered across the front. The top of the bill showcases the Route 66 logo and the Mother Road, while the underside adds a pop of orange. It’s the perfect companion to the jacket.
And when the jacket or Spirit Jersey are a little too warm, the matching Event T-shirt is ready to go. It comes in the same green, with the Balloon Fiesta logo on the left chest and the full Event logo on the back—an easy way to carry The Scenic Route with you all day.
These items join the Event pins, patches, keychains, and magnets we’ve already introduced. Visit our New Arrivals category to see what you may have missed.
And don’t forget: we’re down to the final three days of our Christmas in July sale. This is the final closeout of last year’s merchandise. After Friday, remaining items will likely be removed from the store forever. Browse the On Sale category for the best deals.
Coming up next week on What’s Up Wednesday: the official 2026 poster is here! The artist is signing them, we’re rolling them, and next week we’ll reveal the design and make both the poster and metal prints available for purchase. It’s also a new month, which means a new Pin of the Month release.
