Thirty-five years ago this month, in October 1978, the very first RE/MAX Hot Air Balloon took flight. As it soared over the New Mexico desert during Albuquerque’s Balloon Fiesta (now named the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta), no one could have guessed that the seven-story-tall balloon would soon become one of the world’s most iconic corporate symbols.
Today, no one could imagine it any other way.

Celebrate the icon – known for capturing people’s attention, spreading goodwill and eliciting smiles the world over – by learning a little more about it. The fun infographic breaks down the Balloon by the numbers and provides a quick glance at the facts.
