This week on What's Up Wednesday, it's all about the hat, or cap, or head covering. We have created 5 different designs specially for this year, that is they have the year 2025 on them, and another 3 that are undated. 

Let's get started with this year's event cap. Featuring the Painted Horizons text over the paint flame, this black cap has red and white trim on the bill of the cap. One side features the words Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta, while the other side features our title sponsor ExxonMobil. On the back, it's 2025 embroidered in red. This cap matches the event jacket perfectly.

Next up, the 2025 "All Over" cap. This very dark blue head covering features colorful balloons all over the cap and red on the underside of the bill. 2025 is embroidered on the back.

We have a white and gold metallic cap. Balloon Fiesta and balloons adorn the front and bill of this beauty in the metallic gold design. Embroided on the back strap is 2025. And where's there's white, you usually find black, so we have the same design in basic black, with the gold pattern and words. Grab the set so you can match your cap to your mood.

Number 5 in the 2025 set is the Paint Splash cap. Dark blue, with a bold splash of paint colors over the top and bill of the camp is the background for an embroidered Balloon Fiesta. Like our other 2025 caps, the year is embroidered on the back.

Now to those undated versions, starting with the neon outline pair. One is half black and half neon printed balloons and Fiesta logos. Also on the front, a silicon printed Balloon Fiesta Logo. On the black bill, there's "Established 1972, the underside is the same printed colorful design. The other black neon is all black with neon colors balloons in an outline design. On the right front, there's an embroidered Fiesta logo.

Similar to the black neon is a white ladies ponytail neon. Similar in design to the black outline, the white background has the neon outlined balloons, an embroidered Fiesta logo on the front. The back strap is designed to easily embrace your pony tail. 

There are other undated caps available from previous years. Check out the entire collection online.

Finally, it's hard to believe but we are just 30 days and a few hours from the start of the World's Largest Balloon Gathering in the world. Stock up now and be ready to go on day one. As always, thanks for your support of Balloon Fiesta and Balloon Fiesta Stuff.
